Bringing Up Geeks: How to Protect Your Kid’s Childhood in a Grow-Up-Too-Fast World is a parenting book written by Marybeth Hicks. She is an author and weekly columnist on family issues at the Washington Post. She is also a popular speaker on raising children in today’s world.

In her book she provides parents with information on how to raise children who can resist peer pressure, are strong to pursue their passions and excel at school.

Kids nowadays, through the media, are bombarded with “negative” messages and grow up far too quickly. Raising GEEKs (Genuine, Enthusiastic, Empowered Kids) is the message the author, Marybeth Hicks, is passing on to parents.

Marybeth Hicks’ book is a wonderful guide on how parents can help their children to become strong, compassionate, caring and intelligent adults. The author gives parents the confidence to go against popular culture and stand up for their own morals and values.
