In this speech Erica Komisar explains how shifting values around family, individualism, and consumer culture have impacted parenting, creating more self-centred parents. Unwilling to make the necessary sacrifices required to give their children the care and attention they need, these parents end up raising children prone to narcissistic disorders, and so the cycle continues. Erica believes the solution lies in reasserting the value of parenting and personal sacrifice in our culture and offers practical advice on how we can begin to reverse the effects of this trend.
