Leonard Sax: Our culture has broken the bonds across generations

Leonard Sax: Our culture has broken the bonds across generations

Across the Western world, we’re seeing a crisis in youth mental health, a collapse in family formation, and growing confusion about sex and gender. At the same time, more young people than ever report feeling lonely, directionless, and disconnected. In this episode of Inside Policy Talks, Dr. Leonard Sax—a family physician, psychologist, and best-selling author of The Collapse of Parenting—joins MLI's Peter Copeland. Sax is a leading voice on how sex differences, parenting styles, and educational environments shape childhood development—and what happens when we ignore the hard truths about human nature. He tells Copeland that, in order to raise health children, parents must embrace their authority, restrict screens and social media, and most importantly, foster strong bonds across generations—because this is the purpose of childhood.
