The Glass House: How We Raised a Generation That Can't Break, But Can't Stand

What happens when you raise a child who has never heard the word "No"?

Meet Zen Miller. His parents replaced discipline with "gentle redirection," swapped playgrounds for sensory pods, and outsourced bedtime stories to an AI. They fed him pre-liquefied nutrients so he'd never have to chew. They painted his world beige so he'd never be overstimulated. They cleared every obstacle from his path so he'd never stumble.

He is the most protected child in human history. He is also completely unable to function.

THE GLASS HOUSE is a wickedly funny, uncomfortably prescient work of speculative satire that follows one family from 2029 to 2050-tracing every well-intentioned parenting trend to its logical, horrifying conclusion. From participation trophies that celebrate breathing to AI nannies that replace human love, from grip-strength collapse to a generation that ghosts relationships because "goodbye" requires too much effort-this book holds a funhouse mirror up to the way we're raising children right now.

It's the book that will make you laugh, wince, and then quietly go outside and let your kid fall off something.

For fans of Brave New World, Idiocracy, and anyone who has ever watched a toddler try to pinch-to-zoom a magazine.
