Lemer About the Authors 257 Author Index 265 Subject Index 211 Series Foreword Monographs in Parenting Parenting is fundamental to the survival and success of the human race. Everyone who has ever lived has had parents, and most adults in the world become parents. Opinions about parenting abound, but surprisingly little solid scientific information or considered reflection exists about parenting. Monographs in Parenting intends to redress this imbalance: The chief aim of this series of volumes is to provide a forum for extended and integrated treatments of fundamental and challenging contemporary topics in parenting. Each volume treats a different perspective on parenting and is self-contained, yet the series as a whole endeavors to enhance and interrelate studies in parenting by bringing shared perspectives to bear on a variety of concerns prominent in parenting theory, research, and application. As a consequence of its structure and scope, Monographs in Parenting will appeal, individually or as a group, to scientists, professionals, and parents alike. Reflecting the nature and intent of this series, contributing authors are drawn from a broad spectrum of the humanities and sciences—anthropology to zoology—with repre sentational emphasis placed on active contributing authorities to the contemporary literature in parenting. Parenting is a job whose primary object of attention and action is the child— children do not and cannot grow up as solitary individuals—but parenting is also a status in the life course with consequences for parents themselves. In this forum, parenting is defined by all of children’s principal caregivers and their many modes of caregiving. Monographs in Parenting encompass central themes in parenting ... Who Parents? Biological and adoptive mothers, fathers, single-parents, and divorced and remar ried parents can be children’s principal caregivers, but when siblings, grandparents, and nonfamilial caregivers mind children their parenting is pertinent as well. Whom Do Parents Parent? Parents parent infants, toddlers, children in middle-childhood, and adolescents, but special populations of children include multiple births, preterm, ill, develop- mentally delayed or talented, and aggressive or withdrawn children. ix
