	Fortifying families is Mary Pipher’s mission
		Pipher, who earned her PhD in psychology from the University of Nebraska and holds a BA in cultural anthropology from the University of California at Berkeley, became a cultural force in 1994 with the publication of 'Reviving Ophelia' (Grosset/Putnam).
		Pipher believes that helping families make appropriate choices is a perfect role for psychologists, who are also redefining their place in a changing society.
		Inspired by her five elderly aunts, Pipher is investigating the family issues that elderly people face in a modern society that devalues cross-generational bonding.

	Your Child's Mental Health -- Mary Pipher, PhD
		Pipher: One thing I recommend for parents is that they see the media that their children see, they listen to their music, and they hang out where kids hang out and listen to the way they talk to each other.
		Pipher: I think family dinners are very important; in fact, we have research that shows that the one thing all national merit scholars have in common is they come from families where the family sits down and has dinner together.
		Pipher: One good thing is make sure your teens have contact with people who are not their own age; for example, with extended family and also with animals.

	Another Country : Navigating the Emotional Terrain of Our Elders - Book Review - by Mary Pipher
		Pipher cared for her dying mother for a "horrid," guilt-filled year while this book was being written and says that she wanted "to help others in my situation feel less alone." She also aims to help each generation understand the other.
		Because the death of her mother was so traumatic, Pipher, a psychologist and the author of Reviving Ophelia, was motivated to study the aging process in order to promote meaningful connections between the generations and more cultural support for pursuing them.
		Pipher contends that a variety of cultural trends are responsible for there being so many isolated old people today: a movement away from communal to individualistic ideals; the generation gap between baby boomers and their aging parents; the lack of organized support for the care of the elderly.

	Spirituality & Practice: Book Review: Another Country, by Mary Pipher
		Mary Pipher, a psychologist and author of Reviving Ophelia, believes that her generation of baby boomers must forge a closer bond with the world of their parents — those who now reside in the country of old age.
		Pipher points to the movement from a communal to an individualistic culture, the great divide created by psychology, and the real differences between the generations that she calls "time-zone problems." For example, baby boomers and their elders have very divergent attitudes toward authority, expressing feelings, irony, and R-rated movies.
		Pipher has provided a great moral service to us with her ideas on reconnecting the generations so that each can be enriched.

	Mary Pipher Biography \| Authors and Artists for Young Adults
		Pipher argues that our mass-market, consumer-oriented culture--through slick advertising, pervasive media images of sex and violence, fragmented families, the availability of alcohol and drugs, and a population that's under ever-increasing levels of social stress--is ultimately responsible for this problem.
		Pipher went on to talk about the corrosive effects on family life of shifting social values, our "culture of narcissism," the mass media glorification of sex, violence, and rampant consumerism.
		Pipher summarized her optimistic approach to life in a 1999 interview with Susan Ericsson that was posted on the Media Education Foundation's Web site: "One of the things I notice is that when I bring up the phrase cultural change, people's eyes glaze over.

	The Shelter of Each Other by Mary Pipher - A Book Review by Scott London
		Pipher illustrates her argument with case studies drawn from her many years as a family therapist.
		She feels that psychology is partly to blame for the breakdown of the American family because it tends to explain pathology purely in terms of family experiences.
		Pipher concludes with a variety of practical suggestions toward connecting families, toward "creating a tiospaye." These include making connections and bringing people together, turning off televisions and computers and spending more time in nature, engaging in community service, and sharing stories -- stories of possibility and reconciliation.

	Amazon.de: Reviving Ophelia: Saving the Selves of Adolescent Girls: English Books: Mary Pipher (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		At adolescence, says Mary Pipher, "girls become 'female impersonators' who fit their whole selves into small, crowded spaces." Many lose spark, interest, and even IQ points as a "girl-poisoning" society forces a choice between being shunned for staying true to oneself and struggling to stay within a narrow definition of female.
		Pipher's alarming tales of a generation swamped by pain may be partly informed by her role as a therapist who sees troubled children and teens, but her sketch of a tougher, more menacing world for girls often hits the mark.
		Mary Pipher tackles situations that most parents never even know their daughters are experiencing; she attempts to explain girls distinct "moodiness," drug and alcohol use, and their reasoning for wanting to distance themselves from their parents and yet stay close to them as well.

	Mary Pipher's Another Country
		Rather, she is one of the big guns on the front lines of a growing crusade to bring issues in aging into the limelight, so that elders can remain part of a culture she feels is suffering without their contributions.
		A clinical psychologist in private practice in Lincoln, Neb., Pipher is passionate in her belief that the problems facing U.S. society are huge, but that they could be fixed if we reintegrated older people and the wisdom of their values and life experience into our social fabric.
		Pipher's catalyst for seeing old age as another time and another culture was her mother's illness and death five years ago.

	How camp gives kids a world of good: an interview with Mary Pipher - includes related article on Pipher's works - ...
		Community, is our scarcest commodity in the 1990s, warns Mary Pipher, clinical psychologist, family therapist, and author of Reviving Ophelia, the New York Times bestseller that probes the psychological toll of growing up in today's society with a focus on the complex world of teenage girls.
		Mary Pipher insists that we need "tiospaye," a Sioux word meaning the people with whom one lives.
		Pipher espouses, "Good parents used to introduce their children into the broader culture; now they try to protect their children from the broader culture." In a world where it is harder for children to feel safe, competent, and in control, camp is a refuge that emphasizes human well-being and revalues the natural world.
