Spoiling Childhood : How Well-Meaning Parents Are Giving Children Too Much - But Not What They Need Hardback
by Diane Ehrensaft
Part of the Framing 21st Century Social Issues series
Hardback
Description
Vividly encapsulating the absurdities, heartbreaks, and possibilities of contemporary child rearing, this book shows how parents today are all too often caught up in a guilt-driven pendulum swing between parenting too little and parenting too much.
Dr. Ehrensaft helps us imagine a society where we can overcome the treacherous balancing acts of work and family demands; where "good-enough" replaces perfect parenting, harriedness is traded for harmony, and children grow on a healthy continuum from infancy to adulthood.
