Upbringing Up: How Different Social Classes Raise Children

In a world where social class often determines a child’s destiny, this groundbreaking book offers a comprehensive exploration of the complex relationship between social class and childrearing. Drawing on extensive research, the authors delve into the ways that social class shapes parenting practices and the impact this has on children’s lives.

Parents from different social classes often have different values, beliefs, and expectations for their children. These differences can lead to disparities in the way they interact with their children, the activities they encourage them to participate in, and the resources and opportunities they provide them. As a result, children from different social classes often have different developmental experiences, which can lead to disparities in educational attainment, occupational success, and overall well-being.

This book examines the role of schools and other institutions in mediating the relationship between social class and child development. It also explores the challenges and opportunities for creating more equitable outcomes for children from all social classes. By shedding light on the complex interplay between social class, parenting practices, and child development, this book aims to contribute to the development of policies and programs that can help to mitigate the negative effects of social class and promote more equitable outcomes for all children.

With its rigorous research and engaging writing style, this book is essential reading for parents, educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the impact of social class on child development and well-being. It is a call to action for creating a more just and equitable society where all children have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
