Never Enough By Jennifer Breheny WallaceIn contemporary times, students are grappling with unprecedented levels of stress as they endeavor to secure a promising future in a fiercely competitive environment. The quest to "e;get ahead"e; compels them to overload their schedules with numerous AP courses, immerse themselves tirelessly in activities that enhance their resumes, and sometimes sacrifice personal relationships. The financial and time investments in tutoring and sports burden family finances and schedules significantly. Unfortunately, this relentless pursuit of excellence is leading to escalating levels of distress, melancholy, and even self-harm in the premier schools across the United States. This presents a persistent dilemma for parents, educators, and community figures: finding ways to foster a spirit of excellence in the young generation without subjecting them to excessive stress. In her ground-breaking work "e;Never Enough,"e; acclaimed journalist Jennifer Breheny Wallace delves deep into the underlying roots of this harmful culture of overachievement and proposes strategies to mitigate its effects.
