Description
US families have been pushed to the wall. At the bottom of the economic ladder, poor and working-class adults arent forming stable relationships and cant give their kids the start they need because of low wages and uncertain job prospects. Toward the top, professional parents lives have become a grinding slog of long hours of paid work. Meanwhile their kids are overstressed by pressure to succeed and get into good colleges. In this provocative book, Maxine Eichner argues that these very different struggles might seem unconnected, but they share the same root cause: the increasingly large toll that economic inequality and insecurity are taking on families.
