Parentless Parents is the first book to show how the absence of grandparents impacts everything about the way mothers and fathers raise their children--from everyday parenting decisions to the relationships they have with their spouses and in-laws. For the first time in U.S. history, as the average age of women giving birth has increased significantly, millions of children are at risk of having fewer years with their grandparents than ever before. How has this substantial shift affected parents and kids? Journalist, award-winning television producer, and parentless parent Allison Gilbert has polled and studied more than 1,300 parentless parents from across the United States and a dozen other countries to find out. Through her pioneering research, Gilbert not only shares her own story and the significant and poignant effect that this trend has had on her and hundreds of other families, but also the myriad ways these mothers and fathers have learned to keep the memory of their parents alive for their children, and to find the support and understanding they need.

Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.

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.

Table of Contents Introduction Fear Caused by Mortality Rate Statistics Online The World Is Such a Dangerous Place… Who Is Responsible for a Child’s Safety? Where Has Your Imagination Gone? Brain Boosters? Motor Skills and Obesity Manual Competence and Dexterity Protection against Potential Body Harm Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction A friend of mine wanted to know why I was writing a book on how not to be an overprotective parent, because according to her, the first priority of a parent, especially if he is the responsible person is to make sure that the child is protected, cherished, taken care of, physically, mentally, and emotionally, by the adults around it. A lot of times, the parents do not know when to let go, even when they are in their 60s and 70s, because for them, the children who are in the 40s and 50s are still fledglings in need of their parents' guidance! This book is for all of those parents, who are really afraid of letting their children grow up on their own. Protect and cherish and coddle them, from the harsh, cruel, cruel world outside, and in some ways give them everything, which they never had as children. For them, this is the expression of love and this is the way they can consider themselves to be good parents. A couple of days ago, I saw a youngster, of a really good, well educated, highly placed, financially very secure family being arrested by the police, because he had decided to do something illegal, just for the fun of it. His father happened to tell me, “how could my son do this to me, I never expected it of him, I have given him everything, he is a brilliant boy, his mother and I made sure that he never wanted for anything, since he was a baby, and gave in to all his demands. We protected him throughout his life against the realities of our own harsh childhoods.” This feeling of hurt and betrayal is natural in any parent, who is shocked at the idea of a supposedly well brought up child doing something unconventional, and unacceptable in the eyes of society. When the child was asked by the lawyer, the reason why he decided to try his hand at a little blatant holding up of a jewelry store, he said, that he had never had any excitement in his life. So he wanted to see what it felt like, living on the wild side, instead of living like a mini prototype carbon copy of his so good, so sober, so law-abiding, so traditional, so conventional, so everything parents, hidebound and constricted with their ideas of how a child should be brought up. A friend of mine told me that the law and order situation in her particular city was such, that she was always afraid of her kids being kidnapped. Do you know the statistics against that happening, anywhere in the world today? 0.01%. That is true. The same way as your kid dying in a road accident can be about 1 in 280,000. That is because, even though there are very frightening statistics all over the Internet, talking about road accidents and statistics and kidnapping and all that jazz, most of them are not based on real data.
