The Natural Limitations of Youth

In this book Mitchell investigates how the natural limitations of youth shape not only the day-to-day life of teens but the entire culture. This book analyzes how adolescents are prone toward critical decision-making errors; how they are vulnerable to exploitation in their peer groups in their friendships and in their love relationships; how they are inclined to confuse fact with fable; how they are shaped by narcissistic idelogy and ego-enhancing belief systems; how they are inclined toward poor partner selection in their romantic involvements; and finally why they need dignified adult mentors if they are to achieve a dignified identity of their own.
