520 $aIn this timely and impassioned book, Dana Mack exposes a disturbing aspect of American society. Embedded in the very institutions that are supposed to be helping parents in the difficult enterprise of child-rearing is a pronounced anti-family bent.
520 8 $aDespite the fuss over "family values," Mack argues, we're living in an increasingly family-hating culture that offers little respect or support for parents - that in fact undermines their efforts at a time when they are working harder than ever to raise their children right.
520 8 $aThis state of affairs, Mack maintains, is at odds with the real aspirations and values of parents everywhere and jeopardizes what we treasure most about the family. But a rising groundswell of disenchanted parents is forging a pro-family counterculture aimed at reclaiming the rights and responsibilities of child-rearing and revitalizing family intimacy. Mack sees in their efforts a blueprint for a new family policy, which she articulates in a call to arms that cannot be ignored.
