Parents, Poverty and the State considers the different stances that successive governments have taken towards parents during the past two decades, exploring the emergence of parenting as an acceptable issue for government, as well as the tensions in government policy between supporting families through fiscal policy and supporting parenting through social policy. Eisenstadt and Oppenheim also discuss the impact of emerging neurological research on policy and practice, and the areas for improvement as governments continually struggle to address the needs of parents once their children become teenagers and young adults. | Parents Poverty And The State by Naomi Eisenstadt, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
