This insightful volume provides a much-needed critical evaluation of the wealth of health information that parents today are bombarded with. From guidance around fertility, pregnancy and breast-feeding, to the rise of 'attachment parenting' and mental health issues around being a parent, the book synthesizes literature from a number of fields to offer a critical health psychology perspective on how key parenting issues are framed and understood, for both traditional and non-traditional parents alike. This valuable new perspective will interest students and researchers across developmental and health psychology, sociology, social policy and family studies.
