Something has shifted in the landscape of childhood, and most of us sense it without quite understanding what's changed. Parents who love their children deeply find themselves locked in daily battles over homework, screen time, and basic respect. Teachers watch students tune out their guidance while obsessing over what their friends think. We've blamed technology, permissive parenting, or some mysterious character flaw in modern youth. But the real culprit is far more fundamental: children are raising each other. For the first time in human history, young people are turning to other young people-not parents, teachers, or caring adults-as their primary source of orientation, values, and identity. This phenomenon, called peer orientation, has quietly eroded the natural attachment bonds that made parenting work for millennia. It's not that we love our children less or know less about parenting techniques. The ground itself has shifted beneath our feet. Think about twelve-year-old Jeremy, locked in daily combat with his father over computer time, choosing online chats with friends over homework and family dinners. His parents feel helpless, their guidance bouncing off him like rain off glass. What's happening here isn't a discipline problem or a phase-it's an attachment crisis. Children come into the world with an orienting instinct as powerful as a duckling's imprint. They need someone to follow, someone to show them how the world works. When that someone is a mature, caring adult, development unfolds naturally. But children's attachment systems don't discriminate between adults and peers. They'll orient to whoever is most present, most emotionally available, most compelling. The brain can only follow one compass at a time. When peers become that compass, everything changes.
