Bad Therapy by Abigail Shrier

     A well-written, very thought-provoking book. Names names and takes no prisoners, very courageous and I think largely spot on. Brings to mind the old book Dare to Discipline. One seminal indisputable point is that therapy can have adverse effects, like all treatments. Dwelling on feelings intensifies them. Parents are in the best position to know what is best for their child. Experts are overrated and easily escape accountability. Treatments often fail but the diagnosis lives on and on. A must read for anyone with a child or occation to interact with a child; in short, most everyone. Our language has been taken over by Therapy-speak, once accurately known as 'psychobabble.'
