Críticas:

" From drugs to AIDS, from television violence to war-- between nations or between gangs-- Jim Garbarino makes us feel that we can have control over our environments and the kind of society we want for our children. In Raising Children in a Socially Toxic Environment, Garbarino not only beseeches parents, grandparents, teachers, and religious leaders to make kids a priority, he gives all of us valuable tools for helping kids negotiate through an increasingly complex, high risk world." --Paul Simon, U.S. Senator, Illinois "As the mother of a toddler and a professional concerned with the well being of countless other children, I am struck by how readily we ignore the very real toxicity of our children's social environment. I am grateful to Jim Garbarino for this A to Z list of ways we can respond more positively." --Anne Cohn Donnelly, executive director, National Committee to Prevent Child Abuse

Reseña del editor:

For children, the very act of living in modern society can be dangerous, with factors such as drugs, guns, AIDS, divorce, poverty and violence being a constant threat. Author James Garbarino, whose career has focused on the effects of violence and abuse on child development, draws attention to these dangers and explains how to strengthen children, families and communities so that they can resist these toxic influences. His book is designed to help parents, policymakers, professionals and religious leaders, as well as the general public, together to "detoxify" the social environment.
