Kids

The book explores the impact of parenting practices on the development of preschool children aged one to six, examining the extent of parental influence on shaping their personalities and futures. Meredith Small, a Cornell anthropologist, delves into critical questions about child development, building on insights from her previous work, "Our Babies, Ourselves." Through her research, she aims to illuminate how various parenting approaches can either support or impede children's growth during these formative years.
