Kirsty Young slams pushy parents

Just read a great article on the BBC: Kirsty Young slams pushy parents

Kirsty Young has hit out at the "modern disease" of pushy parents who try to shape children into "baby Einsteins".
The 41-year-old presenter, who is making a four-part documentary series called The British Family for BBC2, said: "Most women don't have careers. They have jobs that they have to do to pay the electricity bill or buy school shoes.
The programme attempts to explode the myth that the 1950s was a golden age for family life.

The British Family begins on Monday, January 11 at 9pm
