We are the first generation in recent history to not know if our children will have a better life than us. Over the past thirty years, the dream of upward mobility and stable and securely paid employment has dissipated. This collection draws together insights from the disciplines of cultural studies, literary theory, psychoanalysis, psychosocial studies, social policy and sociology, in order to explore the complex and contested status of “the family” under neoliberalism. At one end of the spectrum, the intensification of work and the normalisation of long-hours working culture have undermined the time and energy available for private family life. At the other end, the fantasy of the nuclear family as a potential “haven in a heartless world” is rapidly unravelling, supplanted with a hypercompetitive, neo-traditionalist, mobile, neoliberal family seeking to capitalise on the uneven spread of resources in order to maximise the futures of its own children. As neoliberalism has always been split between socio-economic realities and the expectations of where we “should” be, we are always living with the anxiety of being left behind and the hope that the best is yet to come. The chapters in this collection signal the troubles of the neoliberal family: in particular, the gulf between the practical conditions of family life and the formation of new fantasies. The volume addresses the neoliberal family in a range of contexts: from the domestic, reproductive and bio-political regulation of family life, the representations of the neoliberal family on television and across social media, to the negotiation of family dynamics in maternal memoirs. The work provides a much-needed corrective to the critical emphasis on the macrostructures of the neoliberal world.

Put away your phone and get to know your family. We are bringing intentional parenting to the table, the dinner table that is. Don't touch your smart phone for 20 minutes and have a conversation with your kids. Your smart phone will be waiting for you after dinner. Social media will always be there later. Your kids though, time with your children is precious. Babies grow too quick and the grade school age kids, tweens to middle school and then high school teens all happen in an instant. Take time while everyone is sitting and attentive at the dinner table to create conversation. We aren't talking family debates, we are encouraging families to gain a better understanding of who each child and parent is as a human, not just a member of the family. We have created this family book that's to be left on the dinner table or in the kitchen. Start a conversation, create connections and maybe even laugh a little by using our simple questions. We have formulated questions that are specific to kids for you to help gain a better understanding of who your kids are. The "How was your day?" question is great, but can be so surface. The questions in this conversation book go a bit deeper, sometimes funny, light-hearted, and sometimes inquisitive. All were created to help you be intentional in spending time and growing your relationship with your child. There are questions for parents that the kids can ask. These parent questions will help your child know who you are and learn a little bit about how you grew up, who you were then, what you are proud of and more. We also have general questions. These are perfect for nights when you just want to talk. They also work well as conversation starters when you have dinner guests. Use this book to help sibling relationships as well. These family talks can help each brother, sister, mother and father understand one another better. I wrote this family conversation starters book for kids to help you get to know your kids. As a parent to 4 kids, I can verify that the rumors are true. Time flies, kids grow up too fast. Embrace this time by spending a few minutes at the dinner table learning about one another in a fun and creative way. So much can be learned about each other by just asking questions. 200 Conversation Starters for Kids and Parents : Put your phone down and get to know your family. Learn hat to talk about and how to create connection, conversation and community. This is a must have parenting book for families. My hope is that this fun family activity becomes a habit and that the relationships and bond between each member grows, all thru conversations and questions.

The inspiration for the film starring Tilda Swinton and John C. Reilly, this resonant story of a mother’s unsettling quest to understand her teenage son’s deadly violence, her own ambivalence toward motherhood, and the explosive link between them remains terrifyingly prescient. Eva never really wanted to be a mother. And certainly not the mother of a boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much–adored teacher in a school shooting two days before his sixteenth birthday. Neither nature nor nurture exclusively shapes a child's character. But Eva was always uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood. Did her internalized dislike for her own son shape him into the killer he’s become? How much is her fault? Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with Kevin’s horrific rampage, all in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklin. A piercing, unforgettable, and penetrating exploration of violence and responsibility, a book that the Boston Globe describes as “impossible to put down,” is a stunning examination of how tragedy affects a town, a marriage, and a family.
