As administrators, teachers, and parents struggle to help children make sense of our racially and politically polarized nation, Hagerman offers concrete examples of the kinds of interventions necessary to help kids learn how to become members of a multi-racial democracy and to avoid the development of far-right thinking in the white youth of today. Children of a Troubled Time expands our understanding of how the rising generation grapples with the complexities of racism and raises critical questions about the future of American society.

Before Their Crimes: Childhood Trauma, Youth Crime, and the Surprising Journey to Adult Healing is a groundbreaking book that sheds new light on the relationship of childhood trauma and juvenile crime. Wendy Smith uses the framework of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) to explain how the toxic stress of early childhood trauma can make children vulnerable to committing criminal acts. Smith draws from interviews with twenty men and women from across the racial and social divide who spent years in prison after committing serious crimes as children.

The hidden science addicting kids... stealing childhood “It’s just a game”… “Social media is how kids talk today”… “Online video is just like TV” If these claims are true, why can’t kids look up from their screens?

Richard Freed, a child and adolescent psychologist, reveals why in his book Better Than Real Life, as he unveils Silicon Valley’s secret science of persuasive design.

Beneath the postcard image of Prince Edward Island lies a truth the province has long tried to forget. In The Children Who Vanished, author Kennedy Rowe excavates a harrowing yet hidden legacy: the forced adoptions, maternity homes, and church-run institutions that quietly operated for decades, but never innocently. Through meticulous research, survivor testimony, and a refusal to look away from uncomfortable truths, Rowe sheds light on how unwed mothers were silenced, how infants were taken and rehomed, and how official records were sealed, altered, or erased.

Med Mysteriet om unges mistrivsel – en lille bog om et stort problem tager hun skammen ud af krisen, afmystificerer mistrivslen og opfordrer til at handle. I denne bog er hovedpointen, at mistrivsel ikke er et individuelt problem, men derimod mange familiers erfaring – også blandt i øvrigt privilegerede familier – og alles opgave. Som hun skriver: "Det er som om, at det er ude af mine hænder, om det bliver mine eller nogle andres børn, der skal indgå i mistrivselsstatistikkerne."

Most parents want to help their children develop critical thinking skills in order to understand truth and avoid being deceived. Yet this desire doesn’t help someone learn how to actually make it happen. How can parents—how can you—actually raise a critical thinker? Sometimes the best way to learn a truth is to explore its antithesis. Just as darkness helps us better comprehend light, perhaps we can better understand how to raise critical thinkers by considering how we might do the opposite.

The Promise of Youth Anti-citizenship argues that Black youth and youth of color have been cast as anti-citizens, disenfranchised from the social, political, and economic mainstream of American life. Instead of asking youth to conform to a larger societal structure undergirded by racial capitalism and antiblackness, the volume's contributors propose that the collective practice of anti-citizenship opens up a liberatory space for youth to challenge the social order.

During the civil war that ravaged Sierra Leone from 1991 to 2002, an estimated 20,000 children were forced to join the fighting. As villages were raided and youths rounded up, it was not uncommon for a child to be ordered to kill a friend, relative, or neighbor. The goal was to make it impossible for the captives to return home and be accepted back into their communities. Betancourt's study provides insight into the long-term psychological and developmental effects of family separation, war, and exposure to violence.

In ihrem einfühlsamen Plädoyer zeigt die Kinderrechtlerin Eloise Rickman, wie eine Welt aussehen kann, in der Kinder so ernst genommen werden wie Erwachsene. Nicht zuletzt die Pandemie machte sichtbar: Als schwächste Gruppe erleben Kinder Diskriminierung in allen Lebensbereichen–von reformbedürftigen Schulen über steigende Kinderarmut bis hin zu Wahlsystemen, in denen ihre Stimme nicht zählt. Doch all das ist kein Naturgesetz. Wie können wir das Verhältnis zu unseren Kindern so gestalten, dass sie ihre Potenziale frei entfalten können?
