Description

Because I Said So: A Challenge to Modern Parenting Childhood is often overlooked in our society, with adults frequently dismissing children's needs and feelings. This is a pervasive issue, with common parenting methods treating children in ways that would be unacceptable if applied to adults. Children are often taught to blindly obey, yet respect is rarely shown to them. In this thought-provoking book, Sarah Ockwell-Smith explores the concept of childism - the unconscious discrimination of children in our world. She examines childcare history, sociology, psychology, and current affairs to raise awareness of this issue and its impact on everyone. By understanding our own upbringing and its influence on our beliefs and behaviour, we can begin to challenge the status quo and create positive change. This book is a call to action, urging us to consider the prevalence of childism in society today and how we can transform the way we treat children to create lasting change for generations to come.
