Anyone else still up?

I have to write a critique essay for my English class on this article. I would simply like to see what your opinions are and how they compare to mine.

for the most part, I believe the author knows what he's talking about, but I also believe that it may be a little biased. Am I wrong in thinking this? Please tell me what you think.

Good night [Sleep]

Let's face it: there ain't no money, there ain't no political support, there ain't no social power gained in telling parents that they themselves are their kids' biggest problem.

The thing that first impressed me the most about Mormons was the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints TVad campaign telling parents to quit acting like jerks and start behaving like decent human beings when dealing with their kids.

Ain't that the truth.

The article you linked to isn't telling me much I didn't already either know or suspect.

It's like kids who wind up going to psychiatrists or therapists when there's nothing wrong with them that getting rid of the parents wouldn't fix. The kids are just the identified patient.
