    Outdated Information
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2021*

I ordered this book based on respect for the Gesell Institute, but found much of the information to be seriously outdated—so much so that the book becomes suspect in the overall, and effectively useless. Childcare seems to have changed more since this 1982 publication than I might have imagined.Some problematic examples are odd but relatively benign, such as detailing the abilities of a child at twenty-one months who, while carrying a cracker in one hand and a pack of her father’s cigarettes in the other hand, dropped a cigarette and determined that if she held the pack between her forearm and body she could pick up the cigarette. But other suggestions seem far out of line with acceptable practices, such as recommending that a fifteen-month-old who objected to his bath be given “safety pins on a shelf at standing height” to play with, to distract him while being bathed.Roughly one-fourth of the book (of the 178 pages) focuses on responses to letters received from parents, wherein there is a disturbing reluctance to respond to parental behaviors such as spanking children, smacking their hands, or even slapping a child across the mouth. One mother’s letter expressing a fear that a male child preferring comfort and attention from his father over that of his mother “may later turn him into a homosexual” is told not to “worry too much about homosexuality,” that “our bet is that your son will grow up to be quite normal.”References to such practices as pinning diapers make the book seem dated, and in the list of recommendations for further reading the most recent book was published in 1981. There is some useful material in this publication, but even that is marred by the skepticism created by the unnerving bits. The book (and I suspect the series overall) would benefit from extensive updating, as has been done with the publications of Dr. T. Berry Brazelton, originally published in the same era. Until that is done, save your money and look elsewhere for up-to-date information on child-rearing.

This book was probably really awesome in 1982 but right now it seems a bit dated in parts. I enjoyed the first 9.5 chapters but it all went down hill from there. In the real stories section there was tacit approval for hitting and spanking which hasn't been shown as effective (see parenting within reason). I kind of wish this book would be updated with more current research then I'd feel it was worth reading it.
