Families of Virtue articulates the critical role of the
parent-child relationship in the moral development of infants and
children. Building on thinkers and scientists across time and
disciplines, from ancient Greek and Chinese philosophers to
contemporary feminist ethicists and attachment theorists, this book
takes an effective approach for strengthening families and the
character of children. Early Confucian philosophers argue that the
general ethical sensibilities we develop during infancy and early
childhood form the basis for nearly every virtue and that the
parent-child relationship is the primary context within which this
growth occurs. Joining these views with scientific work on early
childhood, Families of Virtue shows how Western psychology can
reinforce and renew the theoretical underpinnings of Confucian
thought and how Confucian philosophers can affect positive social
and political change in our time, particularly in such areas as
paid parental leave, breastfeeding initiatives, marriage
counseling, and family therapy.
