I loved Rhett’s talk at The Summit last fall. He and his book struck such a chord with me personally and I heard lots of feedback from people in attendance who felt the same way.
When I think about anxiety and other issues that we’re hearing more and more about in regards to teenagers I’m wondering: Is it that these things always existed and we’re just now better understanding them? Or is it that something has changed within us as a society which is making us more anxious, depressed, and attention deficient?
And the conspiracy theorist is me wonders: Are we simply aware of it because there’s a multi-billion dollar pharmaceutical industry that profits when they educate people that they might have something for which they conveniently have a $40 per dose pill to treat?
Probably a little of each, eh?
