Parental Involvement in Education Family Dynamics and Relationships Diverse Education Studies and Reforms

Abstract

Currently, only about 50% of American youths live in traditional two-parent, first-marriage families. What is the nature of the relationships among contemporary family variables and the success of children in school? Building on a model for evaluating these relationships, an outstanding group of researchers examines how school achievement is influenced by parent-child interactions: how early adolescents are affected by the overlapping spheres of influence of school, family, community, and peer group; and how family environment influences educational attainment. In addition, this timely volume covers pertinent issues of the family's influence on learning for youth with learning disabilities, school truancy, and the effects of parental discord and divorce on the child's learning.
