Are we raising resilient, capable kids—or fragile, anxious ones? In this eye-opening episode, Keith McCurdy joins BaseCamp Live to expose the cultural shifts that have led to skyrocketing anxiety and emotional fragility in children. He explains why modern parenting has drifted from raising kids of character to chasing happiness and success, and how this shift has deeply impacted our families, schools, and society.

But there’s good news: we can course-correct. Keith outlines four critical parenting strategies to cultivate sturdy kids—children who embrace responsibility, struggle well, and grow into mature, self-regulated adults. If you're ready for practical, countercultural wisdom that will transform your family for the better, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
