Download or read book Parenting Out of Control written by Margaret K. Nelson and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: They go by many names: helicopter parents, hovercrafts, PFHs (Parents from Hell). Drawing on a wealth of eye-opening interviews with parents across the country, Margaret K. Nelson cuts through the stereotypes and hyperbole to examine the realities of what she terms parenting out of control. Situating this phenomenon within a broad sociological context, she finds several striking explanations for why today's prosperous and well-educated parents are unable to set realistic boundaries when it comes to raising their children. Analyzing the goals and aspirations parents have for their children as well as the strategies and technologies they use to reach them, Nelson discovers fundamental differences among American parenting styles that expose class fault lines, both within the elite and between the elite and the middle and working classes. Today's parents are faced with unprecedented opportunities and dangers for their children, and are evolving novel strategies to adapt to these changes -- this lucid and insightful work provides an authoritative examination of what happens when these new strategies go too far

Download or read book Time Out for Parents written by Cheri Huber and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children learn more from what we do than from what we say. If we want our children to be happy and fulfilled, we must model that; we must be happy, fulfilled adults. Choose anything-light-hearted, generous, industrious, expressive-be that way yourself, and that is what your children will learn about how adults are. How can we, as parents, be who we want our children to become? We are often not happy, not fulfilled, not in touch with our deepest selves. This book presents a practice of compassionate acceptance for who and how we are in any moment. It is a book about being kind to ourselves and extending that kindness to others. Even when we are not being ideal parents, if we model openness and acceptance for how we are in every moment, the children around us will learn openness and acceptance for themselves, and that is a wonderful gift. Book jacket.
