Spoilt Rotten: The toxic cult of sentimentality

How Britain is Ruined By its Children

In 'Spoilt Rotten', well-known social commentator Theodore Dalrymple delivers a sharp critique of our child-centric culture, where children have become the yardstick for everything we do. From safe driving to education, and from the taking of responsibility (none) to the overwhelming sentimentality (everywhere), Dalrymple examines the consequences of this pervasive mindset.

A Forensic Polemic on Maudlin Popular Culture:

• Dalrymple dissects the saccharine trends of modern culture, tackling phenomena such as:
  • X-factor
  • Super Nannies
• With his incisive wit, he takes aim at the modern sacred cows of sentimentality and misplaced priorities.

Children will be speechless, for once, and parents will hang their heads in shame!
