Listen Later

In 2014, Greg Lukianoff sought Jonathan Haidt's help to unravel a mystery: a shift from college administrators initiating campus censorship to students demanding it. This led to their collaboration on the widely popular Atlantic article, "The Coddling of the American Mind," exploring the rise of "safe spaces" and heightened sensitivity on campuses. The duo further expanded their insights into a book, "The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting up a Generation for Failure," offering actionable takeaways beyond parenting, making it a highly recommended read.
