This thorough and multidisciplinary overview of childrearing
illustrates and stands on two foundational principles: that the
importance of parenting is immense, and that it is undervalued. The
Critical Role of Parenting in Human Development surprises readers
with the realization that the way we were parented in childhood
impacts nearly every aspect of our lives. Based in part on
cutting-edge research using MRI and fMRI technologies demonstrating
that the brains of those traumatized in childhood are essentially
different, the book explains that our brain development during our
earliest years and in the womb is fundamental to the lives we lead.
It covers attachment theory, the impact of corporal punishment on
the brain, the effects of emotional abuse and neglect, and the
widespread nature of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder, describing the
process that leads to the transmission of parenting patterns
through the generations and explaining how resulting personal
issues recur throughout the lifespan.
The Critical Role of Parenting in Human Development also examines
laws and policies that impact parenting in our culture, making a
case for their importance, and describes the effect of childrearing
on various aspects of human life, including relationships, crime
and violence, economics, mental and physical health, addiction,
education, and career issues, among others. Interdisciplinary in
nature, this book is a much-needed resource for professionals and
students in the psychology, psychotherapy, social work, and related
mental health and child welfare fields.
