Synopsis
This book explores the reflections and experiences of mothers of children aged 0-3 years that have attended universal parenting courses. Simmons considers the factors that motivated mothers to attend a universal parenting course and explore the wider experiences of early modern motherhood in the UK. She investigates participants' perceptions of benefits of attending a parenting course, different forms of parenting advice accessed by mothers, and how this provides an insight into the wider constructs and experiences of modern motherhood. Ultimately, the book considers, through a feminist post-structuralist lens, the social and cultural pressures within modern motherhood in relation to different levels of surveillance, and produces new knowledge for practice within the early years and health sectors in relation to the support currently offered to new mothers. It will be of interest to students and scholars across the sociology of education, gender studies, and childhood studies.

- n***y (190)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI don't like how the product was shipped, the box was completely crushed during shipping and my heart sank a bit because I just knew all of the books were going to be damaged, however, the books being shrink wrapped to a piece of cardboard saved them all and despite what the box looked like (no photos unfortunatly) the books are prestine. Very happy with the collection. Saving seller for future purchases.
