What is the Trauma of Privilege?

The children of privilege become young adults who have no idea of real life challenges. They are highly anxious, fearful, depressed, and codependent. This growing tragedy in our community needs more attention by parents and caregivers. Recognizing the patterns of overprotective caregivers, understanding the intolerance of children's insecurities, learning how to deal with narcissistic and self-loathing behaviors, exploring co-dependence, discussing the meaning of true love, dealing with peer pressure, and finding ways for becoming a love-based parent are effective approaches in managing a healthy household.

I invite you to join me and my dear friend, Harriett Rossetto founder of Beit T'Shuvah the unique residential treatment center and educational institution in West Los Angeles, as we are discussing "the Trauma of Privilege". Harriett has organized a a course in dealing with a range of self-destructive behaviors and addictions, which are the frightening and unintended consequences of affluence and privilege on our youth.
