Описание: Offering new insight on Mexican American culture and families, this book provides an interdisciplinary examination of this growing population. Contributors from psychology, education, health, and social science review recent quantitative and qualitative literature on Mexican Americans. Using current theories, the cultural, social, inter- and intra-personal experiences that contribute to the well-being and adjustment of Mexican Americans are examined. As such the book serves as a seminal guide to those interested in moving away from the dominant deficit model that characterizes the majority of the literature. To ensure consistency and accessibility, each chapter features an introduction, literature review, summary, future directions and challenges, policy implications, and references.? Contributors review current education and health care policies and research that impact this population with the hope of guiding the development of policies and interventions that support well-being and adjustment. Highlights include a: -Normative and strength based perspective on Mexican American families. -Generational perspective that is common among Mexican American families. -Multidisciplinary review of the values, beliefs, practices, identities, educational resilience, and physical and mental health issues for a deeper understanding of this growing population.? -Focus specifically on Latinos of Mexican Origin with a highlight on the cultural, social, interpersonal, and intrapersonal experiences that contribute to well-being and adjustment. -Empirically grounded resource to guide the development of public policy and intervention approaches that support the well-being of families of Mexican origin. Part I provides an historical and demographic overview of Mexican Origin peoples in the US, the development of ethnic identity in these children, and theories for conducting research with this population. Part II highlights the family context in which Mexican-Origin children develop including characteristics that promote school readiness, values that promote successful co-parenting, and how Mexican American children learn by observing and pitching-in. The section concludes with a discussion of the concept of space and its role on the socialization of Mexican American children. The issues and challenges that Mexican American children face as they move through the US school system are examined in Part III. These chapters highlight the role that language development and bilingualism play in school success, the ways in which teachers can support the learning and development of these children, and the impact of parents’ involvement in children’s schooling.? Part IV examines mental health care systems including ways in which providers can improve participation and the quality of services, the factors that influence Mexican American parenting and the role these play in their children’s mental health, and the impact of acculturation and enculturation in the mental health of adolescents. Physical health is the focus of Part V.? Here the Hispanic Paradox, the occurrence of better health outcomes in immigrants compared to their U.S. born counterparts, is explored. These chapters attempt to disentangle the role that culture plays in the paradox, the benefits associated with traditional Mexican dietary practices and ways in which nutritionists can utilize these to promote healthier eating, informal health care practices that are traditional in the Mexican heritage and the factors that influence their usage, and the role of culture and behavior on physical health including maternal and infant health.? The book concludes with recommendations for future directions for research.? Ideal for advanced students, researchers, policy makers, and practitioners in human development and family studies, psychology, sociology, social work, education, and community health interested in Mexican Americans, this book serves as an excellent resource in graduate or advanced undergraduate courses on Mexican American culture, (Latin) Mexican American/Chicano or cross-cultural studies, cross cultural development, diversity, or race and ethnicity. Knowledge of social science or developmental theory is not assumed.
Описание: Eight years ago, Dr. John Duffy wrote the ultimate guide for parenting teenagers. In the number one best-selling "The Available Parent," he urged parents to be less authoritarian, and more "available" to their kids. That is, he encouraged them to parent with less fear, judgment and ego clouding their mission of raising competent, resilient teenagers. The landscape of the lives of teenagers, and in fact all of childhood and young adulthood, has changed so wildly since that time, and most people do not see it, or do not seem to entirely get it. This book, a new guide for parents, needed to be written. Because this is a hidden phenomenon, the need for this book is URGENT. Parents are not aware that this shift is happening. In just the past few years, children have had to mature into teen-like thought at earlier and earlier ages. Because of the onslaught of social media and other data available to younger and younger children, we can no longer control the narrative of what information, good or bad, our children are exposed to. So, children as young as eight-years-old are prematurely self-conscious, over-stressed, and overwhelmed. They are developmentally unprepared for so much of the flood of information, thought and emotion they face, and this drives unprecedented anxiety, depression, and even hopelessness in our kids. So, in many ways, saving "teen parenting" for thirteen is now several years too late. All of this stretches the teenager years well beyond nineteen on the back end as well. The formerly predictable arc toward independence, in life and in thought, by twenty-years-old has been a useful guidepost in the past. But the very circumstances that hasten adolescence in the early years also tend to present a lag in the later years. Because they are emotionally overwhelmed early, many young people are still sorting through their sense of self well into their twenties today. In his practice, Dr. Duffy see more and more young people from 18-24 who are struggling with self-regulation issues, stunned by their lack of resilience and spending months, even years, re-grouping. What often looks like a failure to launch is actually the ongoing resolution of adolescent issues. That is to say, the parenting challenges continue for quite some time after nineteen, and it is critical that parents are aware. Much of the shift being described involves an increase in psychological suffering among our young people. Dr. Duffy work with these children many hours a day. The new patterns are not vague. The shift is abundantly clear. And the fallout is overwhelming at best, but devastating in the extreme. Let's review some of the grim realities: -Children report strikingly more stress now than ever before. -Poor self-esteem, and a higher degree of self-loathing, is reported by children now more than ever before. -Body image issues are far more prevalent now than ever before, and at shockingly early ages. -Suicide rates are skyrocketing among young people. This is an alarming, rapidly increasing trend. -We have seen a precipitous rise in school shootings, and other mass shootings, by young people. So, the urgency for this book, the need to recognize and acknowledge this shift, lies in the fact that we are losing young people in record numbers, either literally or figuratively. Consider all the talent and joy and contribution lost when just one teen checks out mentally and/or emotionally, or worse takes her own life. In aggregate, it is possible that we are heading in a direction in which we lose the gifts of countless young people. And, without a doubt, we will all be worse for the loss. The young people who are vulnerable, who struggle to find value in themselves, and feel their feelings so strongly, are the very people we need most right now. They don't recognize their value, but in reality it knows no bounds. We have to save them, for their sake and for our own. And it is critical to note the good that comes with the challenges he
