"A central theme of this book is the gradual process of separation between parents and toddlers and the growth of autonomy in them all. Jenny Stoker has written with clarity, sympathy and warmth about the multiple problems children face in their toddler years and she has addressed the parents with immense empathy. Stoker manages to convey complex concepts and arguments in a lucid and simple style that all readers will find most helpful.'Each of the authors featured has published papers and books for the academic and clinical communities; the present volumes, however, are specifically aimed at parents. The intent is not to convince but to inform the reader. Rather than offering solutions, we are describing, explaining and discussing the problems that parents meet while bringing up their children, from infancy through to adulthood.'We try to provide portraits of the various stages in the child's cognitive, intellectual, and emotional development and how these unfolding stages affect not only the child's experience of himself, but also how he perceives and relates to the world in which he lives."--Provided by publisher.

Chronic shyness can pose a serious threat to a child's academic, emotional, and social development.

Any parent who has raised more than one child is likely to be keenly aware of subtle or even striking differences among their offspring. The central premise of this volume is that children bring personal qualities to their relationships with other family members that help shape family interaction, relationships, and even processes that family researchers have called ""parenting."" The chapters address how children's personal qualities make their mark on families in ways that may in turn influence children's subsequent development. The volume is based on the presentations and discussi

Er is een heftige maatschappelijke discussie gaande over de 'jeugd van tegenwoordig' en de opvoeding die deze krijgt. Problemen van kinderen worden steeds minder gezien als horend bij een (soms moeizaam) proces van opgroeien en opvoeden, en steeds meer als een signaal dat professionals moeten optreden en zo nodig ingrijpen. Zo ontstaat een toenemende 'export' van kinderen uit hun gewone leefsituatie naar professionele behandelcontexten. Ongeveer één op de zeven kinderen heeft op dit moment een indicatie voor speciale zorg, speciaal onderwijs of hulp in een justitieel kader. De verwachting is d

Mara H. Benjamin contends that the physical and psychological work of caring for and rearing children, for centuries the province of women, is theologically fruitful but a largely unexplored terrain for feminists. Attending to the constant, concrete, and urgent needs of children, she notes, necessitates engaging with profound questions concerning the responsible use of power in unequal relationships, the transformative influence of love, human fragility and vulnerability, and the embeddedness of self in relationships and obligations. Benjamin focuses on how parents and children negotiate these issues as Jews and how these relationships advance Jewish theological, ethical, and existential inquiry. Viewing child-rearing as an embodied practice, Benjamin's theological reflection invites a profound reengagement with key Jewish theological thinkers such as Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig, and Emmanuel Levinas. Her contemporary feminist stance forges a convergence between Jewish theological anthropology and the demands of parental caregiving.1. This book is one of the first Jewish theological treatments of motherhood and childrearing.2. It is among the first feminist works to treat maternal experience as theologically productive.
