How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character by Paul Tough

2.0

This may have seemed more enlightening if I actually had children. The book seems to consist of a list of findings from various studies and summaries with some arguments thrown in, but those arguments sometimes feel lopsided. Tough appears to give schools most of the responsibility when it comes to raising successful children; why weren't parent/child relationships examined more?
