Mel Levine on the Echo Boomers

I found a link to this article from the All Kinds of Minds newsletter.

My kids, as children of baby boomers, are in this generation. Specific traits and/or things that concern Dr. Levine about echo boomers are:

• taught team work rather than leadership
• overmanaged by adults
• overscheduled with little free time
• pressured to achieve
• aim to please
• traditional values
• interested in community service
• want to build things up rather than tear things down (community-wise)
• trust the government and mom and dad
• rely on word of mouth for product/service advice
