<p><em>Growing Up Lonely</em> is derived from papers presented at the 2018 symposium &ldquo;Loneliness and the Power of Permanency&rdquo; attended by more than four hundred mental health professionals and sponsored by The Home for Little Wanderers the United States&rsquo; first child social welfare agency founded in 1799.</p><p>With insights aimed at both professional clinicians and the general public the book features papers by Harvard Medical School psychiatry professors Jacqueline Olds and Richard Schwartz (coauthors of <em>The Lonely American: Drifting Apart in the Twenty-First Century</em>) and psychiatrist Amy Banks (author of <em>Wired to Connect: The Surprising Link between Brain Science and Strong Healthy Relationships</em>). In addition the book reproduces the story that sparked the idea of the symposium &ldquo;The Loneliest Boy&rdquo; which first appeared in J. W. Freiberg&rsquo;s book <em>Four Seasons of Loneliness</em> as well as a new work by Freiberg who has been called &ldquo;the Oliver Sacks of law.&rdquo;&nbsp; Freiberg again uses a story format to depict law cases that illustrate the nature of the misconnections between today&rsquo;s children and their parents that cause so many to begin life with a lonely trek through a dark and stressful childhood.</p>
