We're good at taking care of little kids, and spend a lot of energy teaching them things like how to read.

Kids need to open up to their parents. And parents should realize that when kids are pushing you away, that's the time to really step in.
Some parents let kids "learn on their own skin" and many of those kids end up, as adults, languishing on their parents' sofas.
