In Child Discipline in African American Families, Carla
Adikison-Johnson provides a contextual understanding of African
American disciplinary practices, giving clinicians, child welfare
professionals, and legal professionals a framework to better define
what is reasonable and functional when addressing child rearing
concerns with African American parents. Highlighting numerous
sources, cases, narratives, and data, Adkison-Johnson debunks the
theory that spanking is the preferred method of child discipline
for African American parents and provides new insights into how
African American parents grapple with establishing parenting goals
and child behavior expectations in a society that is often hostile
toward African American children. Accompanied by the perspectives
of a seasoned trial lawyer, the arguments in this book are brought
to life, enabling readers to witness how child rearing concerns can
play out in a real-world context.
