The Effect of Children on Parents

By Anne Marie Ambert

This pioneering book honestly confronts the interactions by which parents and children change, develop, and sometimes affect each other negatively. Taking a unique interdisciplinary approach, The Effect of Children on Parents, Second Edition, describes in great detail, with jargon-free language this neglected area of parent-child dynamics. This second edition contains an abundance of fresh information, including nine entirely new chapters that deal with such complex topics as the effects on parents of children with emotional, behavioral, and delinquency problems. The specific problems created by peers, professionals, minority status, and adoption also constitute new chapters.
