Hold On to Your Kids by Gabor Maté and Gordon Neufeld

Hold On to Your Kids by Gabor Maté and Gordon Neufeld

Maté and Neufeld argue that a genuine shift has occurred in modern childhood: children increasingly take their emotional and behavioural cues from peers rather than parents, a pattern they call peer orientation, and that it produces attachment problems that surface later as anxiety, aggression or emotional flatness.

They trace how this displacement happens — through daycare, school structures and constant peer contact via technology — and give parents practical strategies for reclaiming what they call the attachment village: staying the primary compass point in a child's life through adolescence rather than ceding that role by default.

A widely cited book on modern parenting and attachment, from a respected physician and a developmental psychologist.
