Has anyone read this book???? It is by Elizabeth Rose.
I just ordered it yesterday and am looking forward to it...
Please tell me what you thought if you did...
Are there any others that you would recommend?? Maybe 1960-NOW
The changing climate of daycare is fascinating. The parenting differences I have seen in just the past 20 years is chilling, so I am really interested in others perspective of the subject..
I did enjoy Children First by Penelope Leach as well..
(sp? ...off the top of my head, the bookshelf is in my room on the other side of the house 
)

I love that list!!! Thank you, Blackcat
Now, would you (or anyone), by any chance, know of any studies on the escalating patterns of known behaviors in childcare providers under extreme/chronic stress?
My main interest would be in relation to their becoming desensitised to children's needs or worse leading up to "rationalised" abuses?
Maybe even detailed case studies??
I have not been very successful in finding actual, searchable, and substantiated information.

I am not sure if this is what you mean but I did have this bookmarked for an assignment in a pyschology class for a research paper I did on abuse in child cares.

Most of the information I used for the paper came from scholarly journals I found using this search page; http://www.informaworld.com/smpp/home~db=all
Hopefully, you will have luck there....

Thank you!! I will go though them this afternoon, it is such beautiful weather we are going out to enjoy it again...

I tried to read those articles but they cost $35 to download... I will have to wait until another payday....
My book was less...
(although the print is so small it is painful to read more than a couple pages at a time....)
