Modern generations, especially younger ones, live with increasing rates of anxiety, substance abuse, mental illness, suicide, and relationship dysfunction. How can we better understand what is going on? What is the solution? Is the American dream on life support?The American dream is a group of ideals and goals which are born from the freedom of living in a republic. However, many are not realizing the American dream because they are distracted and give themselves over to thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are contrary to successful living. Distracted living results in decisions which produce chaos in their lives and draw them further away from their dreams. Distracted living produces confusion, which produces chaos. The American dream and chaos are mortal enemies.Lessons from Life after Kindergarten examines the issues surrounding distracted living that restrict freedom and produce confusion and conflict. The author weaves together stories from the Holy Bible, history, his psychiatric practice, his life, and current events to help the reader understand how decisions resulting from distracted living will always produce an unfavorable outcome.
