from The Growth Kit · host Brian Comly

In 2014, Greg Lukianoff sought Jonathan Haidt's help to unravel a mystery: a shift from college administrators initiating campus censorship to students demanding it.

The duo further expanded their insights into a book, "The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting up a Generation for Failure," offering actionable takeaways beyond parenting, making it a highly recommended read.
