Families and parents have the most central and enduring influence
on children's lives. Parenthood is not instinctive, but is rather
an evolutionary procedure throughout the child's life-course. This
book looks at the pattern of family structures, which has evolved
as a result of social, cultural and economic changes. An overview
of parental monitoring and the development of two new retrospective
monitoring scales is examined. This book also focuses on certain
parenting styles, stressors, and practices which promote positive
and negative child behaviours. The goodness-of-fit concept is
emphasised, which concentrates specifically on how a poor fit
between the temperament behaviours of infants and young children
and parents' expectations and parenting skills can stress and
challenges the parent-child relationship and potentially lead to
poor child outcomes. Among other issues, this book addresses the
relations of maternal emotional availability with infant smiling
and crying, the importance of measuring parental brain and
physiological systems, the effect of working class mothers on their
emotional availability to their children, and the variety of
patterns that a parent must adopt in daily life to cope with
situations of conflict to promote processes of emotional and social
adaptation in their children.
