SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Modern family life raises tough questions: Who should be responsible for children's daily care? How can their financial support be fairly allocated between parents? Should extended family members be paid for their help? Can women have full careers and also be good mothers? 'Raising Children' takes on these questions and more.
