How fear and judgment impact parenting

Author Kim Brooks left her then-4-year-old son in a car with his iPad as she shopped for five minutes inside a store. But Brooks didn't realize a stranger recorded her child alone and then called police. The fallout from that moment caused Brooks to take a deeper look at why today's parents deal with so much criticism, doubt and worry. Brooks joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss her new book, "Small Animals: Parenthood in the Age of Fear."
