Tracey and Taylor are yelling at each other in the kitchen. Doors slam, tears flow. The scene is familiar to anyone who has ever been a teenager, or raised one. But not every mother is a Hollywood scriptwriter, with a film crew in tow to capture the whole thing.


"Taylor, you're spoilt." "You brought me up this way," Taylor retorts. "Well, now I'm undoing it." Taylor Templeton is a "lucky duck". She's grown up on New York's privileged Upper East Side, a district with over 7000 shrinks and where your average teenage girl will spend $1000 a week on food that she will merely pick at.

Taylor's filmmaker mother, Tracey Jackson, sets herself the challenge of exploring the current "epidemic" of depressed, dysfunctional kids and the psychology behind the parental overindulgence that has "created" it. In the process, Jackson hopes to cure her daughter's attitude problem and eating disorder, and, ultimately, "fix" their troubled relationship.

  • Stuck up white girls, meh. Show me something interesting worth learning about.

  • There are like 4 of these in my sub box that total less than 10 minutes.

  • @VoteJesusNow I recall watching the full documentary on Hulu a while back. Check to see if it's still there.

  • What this documentary is not available in the US? the school teacher is an American right? She can know the Indian school system and teach foreign people but not Americans )=

  • This is by far the most informative journey clip ever. Schooled for 10 minutes in one minute now that is the future of education.

  • 10 minutes is a long time, americant students are babysat all day, and don't even get to color.:{

  • Interesting although, I was hoping to see actual ducks teaching :)
