Sommario/riassunto |
|
What has happened to the American family in the last few decades? And what are these changes doing to our children? David Elkind, author of "The Hurried Child", attempts to answer such questions. This book - the culmination of his inquiry - puts together all the puzzling facts and conflicting accounts to show us what the American family has become. |
