Acerca de esta escucha

Few people realize that raising children is the single largest industry in the United States. Yet this vital work receives little political support, and its primary workers—parents—labor in isolation. It's almost as if parents are set up to fail—and the result is lost opportunities that limit children's success and make us all worse off. In The Parent Trap, Nate Hilger combines cutting-edge social science research, revealing historical case studies, and on-the-ground investigation to recast parenting as the hidden crucible of inequality.

Parents are expected not only to care for their children but to help them develop the skills they will need to thrive in today's socioeconomic reality—but most parents, including even the most caring parents on the planet, are not trained in skill development and lack the resources to get help. The solution, Hilger argues, is to ask less of parents, not more. America should consider child development a public investment with a monumental payoff. To make it happen, parents need to organize to wield their political power on behalf of children—who will always be the largest bloc of disenfranchised people in this country.

The Parent Trap exposes the true costs of our society's unrealistic expectations around parenting and lays out a profoundly hopeful blueprint for reform.

Hard to put down, especially as a toddler parent

Fascinating book, with a ton of easy to understand research. A few times it was hard to have the audio book because there were visual graphs, and I was doing other stuff and not able to pull up the PDF.

Please read this if you’re a parent.

An important perspective on education and kids

Paints a picture of a better world where kids have more and better opportunities to grow and learn. In many ways, we expect too much from parents, and The Parent Trap talks about the way past that.
