Parenting Programmes: What the Parents Say
This book presents original research examining parents’ perspectives on the structure, content and delivery of parenting programmes. It explores how parents have personally been impacted by attending such a programme and finally whether or not this might be affecting their child. Utilising an innovative mixed methods research approach, based around a critical realist philosophy, the author follows 136 families through one of three parenting programmes and beyond. In doing so, she provides important new insights regarding the efficacy of the parenting programmes, demonstrating a real-world application of the transplant model of parent-professional practice in action. This book provides a valuable new resource for students and scholars working in the psychology of education, education, childhood studies, and across the social sciences more broadly. It will also be of interest to policymakers and professionals involved in the development and implementation of parenting programmes.
Professional Parenting
Defining the Professional Parent- I am a professional parent. I can make this statement because I am probably the highest paid parent in the world. My earnings from this profession have not been monetary, but they have certainly been valuable. My payment has been in the form of love, respect, knowledge and satisfaction. It has been the most rewarding profession I could have chosen, and I am thankful for my children every day of my life. Other professional paths I have ever followed pale in the presence of this one. This project has taken over a decade to write during a time that has produced some of the most chilling worldwide events in human history. When I began writing it, I was living in California's San Francisco Bay area. My youngest child had just started school and my oldest had a new family of her own. The middle three were scattered throughout the public school system from elementary to junior and senior high grades. If the information in this book is taken seriously, a safer America will be the inheritance of future generations.
Who's Fit to be a Parent?
In recent years the notion of parenting and parenthood have increasingly come under examination from the media and professionals and, in particular, government and politicians. More and more, parents are being held to account by society for their failure to deliver the sort of citizens it wants. But what are parents supposed to be doing? Are there some people that are inherently unfit to be parents and does there exist a body of knowledge that defines fit parenting? Who's fit to be a parent? covers this highly topical and important subject in a stimulating and accessible way that cuts across numerous professional disciplines and opens up the boundaries between professional and personal expertise on parenting. It is essential reading for any professional or student of social work and social policy, those working in the voluntary services concerned with the family, social policy makers and for anyone interested in understanding what it means to be a parent today.
