The book's message is unnecessarily complicated by too much verbiage, but it's really quite simple: kids need their parents. By and large, they aren't getting them. The author details widespread symptoms and increasingly common quick-fixes (Ritalin) to make her point.
The section I found most disturbing was the on one "specialty" schools for "problem" teens, as I was not formerly aware of their existence. I will definitely be reading Alexia Parks' book "American Gulag."
