Class does make a difference in the lives and futures of American children. Drawing on in-depth observations of black and white middle-class, working-class, and poor families, Unequal Childhoods explores this fact, offering a picture of childhood today. Here are the frenetic families managing their children's hectic schedules of "leisure" activities; and here are families with plenty of time but little economic security. Lareau shows how middle-class parents, whether black or white, engage in a process of "concerted cultivation" designed to draw out children's talents and skills, while working-class and poor families rely on "the accomplishment of natural growth," in which a child's development unfolds spontaneously—as long as basic comfort, food, and shelter are provided. Each of these approaches to childrearing brings its own benefits and its own drawbacks. In identifying and analyzing differences between the two, Lareau demonstrates the power, and limits, of social class in shaping the lives of America's children. The first edition of Unequal Childhoods was an instant classic, portraying in riveting detail the unexpected ways in which social class influences parenting in white and African American families. A decade later, Annette Lareau has revisited the same families and interviewed the original subjects to examine the impact of social class in the transition to adulthood.

At this time of writing, The Ebook Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race, and Family Life has garnered 10 customer reviews with rating of 5 out of 5 stars.

The author and her research assistants follow the families written about in the book for 10 years looking at how their different child rearing practices affects their children's outcomes. The focus is primarily on the use of language in communication with the children and the use of language on behalf of the children in regard to schooling and other important instutions. Additionally parental involvement as it relates to connecting children to organized activities is analyzed. Not surprisingly the more verbal parents who confidently interacted with their children's schools and placed their children in formal activities had children who succeeded educationally and career-wise over those who did not. These children developed the verbal and social skills that lead to success in our society. Unfortunately, the children whose parents did not do those were less likely to thrive.Obvious yes but very interesting when you drive into the detailed case studies. Mentioned but could have been emphasized more is that the parents who were less verbal had less education themselves and in the families studied, far less money to spend on extracurricular developmental activities. These families were trying to survive and provide the basic necessities to their children.I would love to see a follow-up of where the children are now that almost another 10 years has passed. Most probably have families of their own and it would be interesting to see if anything has changed.
