Doing Right by Children2001
Reflections on the Nature of Childhood and the Obligations of Parenthood (Paragon Issues in Philosophy)
by William B. Irvine
"Doing Right by Children examines our changing views on the obligations of parenthood and considers a number of questions. What characteristics are desirable in a parent? What family structure best serves the interests of children? Is childhood innocence worth preserving? What should our goals be in raising children? When is someone morally justified in bringing a child into existence?
The answers to these questions will be of interest not just to parents, but to anyone who laments the decline of childhood in America."--BOOK JACKET.
