School closures from the coronavirus are forcing more than 55 million K-12 students in the U.S. to learn from home. CBS News contributor Julie Lythcott-Haims, author of "How To Raise An Adult: Break Free of the Over- Parenting Trap and Prepare Your Kid for Success,” joins "CBS This Morning" co-host Tony Dokoupil to discuss which kids who could lose out the most through distance learning and what could be the lasting impact of this new normal. She offers advice to parents to help their children succeed and assures America's youth have proven resilient in times of crisis. As a former dean of freshmen at Stanford University, Lythcott-Haims also discusses the unique challenges facing college students away from their campuses.
