“Childhood should be a time of freedom and play, not building a résumé for college,” Dr. Gray said.

格雷博士说：“童年本就应该自由玩耍，这段时光不是用来打造漂亮的大学入学简历的。”

As Ms. Skenazy put it, “if parents truly believe children must be supervised every second of the day, then they can’t walk to school, play in the park, or wake up Saturday morning, get on their bikes and go have an adventure.”

正如斯科纳兹女士所说的那样：“如果家长真的认为自己的子女每分每秒都离不开照管，那么孩子们就不能自己走路去上学或是在公园玩耍，更不能在星期六早上起床后骑上自行车出门去探索新天地。”

Some 2,000 families were screened by the Discovery Life Channel to find 13 families crippled by anxiety yet willing to have an intervention. “The parents weren’t easy pushovers,” Ms. Skenazy said. “Some were very unhappy to see me at first. But once pride in what their children achieved replaced their fears, they were ecstatic — relaxed and happy instead of crippled with fear.”

探索生活频道筛查了约2000个家庭，从中找到了13个深受焦虑困扰却愿意尝试接受干预的家庭。“要说服父母们可不是件容易的事，”斯科纳兹说。“有些人一开始根本不想见到我。但当他们对孩子成就的自豪感冲淡了恐惧，每个人都欣喜若狂，变得又轻松又快乐。”
