These days we hear a great deal about child development and child rearing, but it almost exclusively focuses on the child's remembered experiences and actions. "A Serious Case of Neglect seeks to redress this one-sided perspective with a carefully considered theory of parenting and an in-depth analysis of the parenting role. Drawing on over thirty years of experience as a family counselor and therapist, Alice van der Pas illustrates her theory with clinical examples and develops a conceptual framework that breaks down the elements involved in the development of a good parent. This book is an intriguing work in family psychology that sheds new light on an issue rarely navigated from the perspective of the parent.
