AFT/SML/ASI Book Club with Jonathan Haidt

In The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness, social psychologist Jonathan Haidt lays out how childhood changed in the 2010s and why teen anxiety and depression spiked. In this Book Club event, Haidt joins AFT and ASI President Randi Weingarten for a practical, research-driven discussion on what works: phone-free school days, more play and connection, getting enough sleep, and family-school teamwork, focusing on concrete steps educators and caregivers can take this year.
