This exciting collection of original essays by prominent Canadian scholars examines issues and trends affecting family life in Canada. The text is organized in five parts.The first part, "Conceptualizing the Family," presents an overview of the sociology of the family in Canada: it explores various definitions of "family" from an anthropological perspective; examines family patterns in historical and cross-cultural contexts; provides an overview of the theoretical frameworks and research methodologies for family studies; and discusses Canadian demographic trends.The life cycle is the focus of the second part of this book. In Chapter 3, Rachel Ariss shows how social expectations and ideologies about intimacy shape how individuals experience family formation. In ''Parents and Children,'' Gillian Ranson introduces the dominant ideals of motherhood and fatherhood in Canada and demonstrates the extent to which parenting practices are shaped by social and economic contexts. Major changes in social practice and in the legal environment that have gone hand in hand with demographic changes to contribute to the episodic nature of spousal unions in Canada today. In Chapter 5, Craig McKie outlines the legal history of the family in Canada and explores how the introduction of Islamic laws (shariah) challenge the principle that newcomers to Canada are free to continue on in their beliefs and practices when these are not in fundamental conflict with Canadian law. Chapter 6 provides a timely examination of the issues that affect the ''sandwich generation'': coresidence with adult children, the ''informalization'' of care to aging parents, intergenerational ambivalence, and the relationship between midlife families and social policy. As Lori D. Campbell and Michael P. Carroll note in their chapter on older Canadians, aging within a family context has become more complex and diverse than ever before. The changes that have been occurring in the form and structure of families as a result of greater longevity, increased divorce, remarriage, and other socio-demographic factors, allow increased ''intergenerational exchange'' - the exchange of support between older and younger generations.Part III highlights the economic inequalities that exist among families. As Andrea Doucet notes, historical circumstances have contributed to strong divisions in both paid and unpaid work that are linked to gender, class, and ethnicity. Chapter 8 examines key issues in the study of paid and unpaid work, including: the connections that exist between paid and unpaid work; how unpaid work benefits the state; the complexities involved in measuring unpaid work; the costs of care; and why gender differences in paid and unpaid work matter. In the following chapter, Joseph H. Michalski argues that family change and demographic events have had their impact on income poverty, to the extent that they influence the types of families and living arrangements in which Canadians share and pool income.Diversity is the unifying theme of Part IV. In her article, In ''"I Do"'' Belong in Canada: Same Sex Relationships and Marriage," Doreen M. Fumia reveals the insecure relationship between sexual minorities and citizenship, highlighting the strategies used to reproduce normalized heterosexual notions of marriage and to avoid confronting heterosexism. James S. Frideres stresses the importance of the family among aboriginal, immigrant, and visual minorities communities, as family members learn to cope with the dynamics of integration and adaptation to mainstream Canadian culture. In Chapter 11 he focuses on key issues affecting family life for these groups: intermarriage; gender roles in minority communities; social and economic demographics in comparison to ''mainstream'' Canadians; differences in social structure and organization; and risk factors that affect Aboriginal, immigrant, and visible minority youth. In Chapter 12, Michelle K. Owen draws our attention to the impact that disability has on Canadian families; the role that gender plays in the lives of people with disabilities; the relationship between poverty and disability; and the increased incidence of physical and sexual abuse among people with a disability. The final part of the book is devoted to law and policy. In ''All in the Family: Violence Against Women, Children, and the Aged,'' Aysan Sev''er examines the ''dark side of the family'', where power differences can translate into mental, physical and/or sexual abuse, and even murder. She reviews the basic definitions of abuse and introduces theories that explain violence within intimate relationships. She then addresses possible interventions at the social and structural levels that may diminish the incidence of abuse. The role of the state in regulating family life is addressed in Chapter 14. Catherine Krull details the evolution of Canada''s family policies within a liberal welfare state and examines the ideology and implications of a universal versus a targeted approach to family policies. Krull argues that we need to appreciate why state intervention is necessary if we are to achieve gender equity and suggests that Quebec''s progressive family policies should serve as a model for the rest of Canada. In the final chapter, Margrit Eichler takes a lighthearted look at the predictions that experts made regarding the future of the family from 1930 to 1975. After reviewing some predictions that were spectacularly wrong, and others that were surprisingly accurate, Eichler bravely makes her own predictions regarding the future of the family: she anticipates a modest trend towards three generation families as one response to economic uncertainties and political turmoil; a decrease in life expectancy; continuing low fertility with high immigration from third world countries; less homophobia; a continuing slow erosion of strictly defined gender roles; and a continuing diversity of unions, including common law and legal marriages, opposite and same sex marriages. In short, families will continue to exist, some will prosper, others less so, and children will continue to be raised within family settings, which will probably be even more diverse than at present.

It's hard enough to train kids to behave, but good behavior isn't what Jesus calls for in the Bible. He wants hearts and souls that are shaped in vibrant faith and love toward God and others. How can parents cultivate this in their children? In this book Dr. Michelle Anthony shares practical examples and biblical insight on the spiritual role of parenting. Spiritual Parenting introduces the simple but revolutionary concept that parents are, by the power of God's Spirit, to obey and depend on God in order to create an environment God can use to beckon their children to Him.
