Maybe I did not give this book much of a shot. I was put off immediately by "my parents say this but I'm going to do this." That is not a great start to me.

Combination of memoir (out-of-control ADHD dropout makes good) and advice to parents of "challenging" kids. A little too simplistic for my preferences but I liked it.

How ironic that I'm giving a single score to The End of Average Todd Rose starts off strong about the Air Force finally creating adjustable settings for their plane, as opposed to designing a cockpit for average size pilot. This breakthrough trickled down and resulted in things we take for granted, like adjustable seats in our car.

Todd Rose hates "avergarian", a world built around the average. Everyone is boiled down to a single number. He prefers the world built around individuals. He shares the rich history of "avergarian" (Taylorism) and makes some solid points on the averages having flaws.

However, I couldn't figure how to really apply it to my life, my job, or just my way of thinking.
