The Parent Trap exposes the true costs of our society’s unrealistic expectations around parenting and lays out a profoundly hopeful blueprint for reform.This week the movie will be the movie “The Parent Trap (1998)” on August 11th.
To make it happen, parents need to organize to wield their political power on behalf of children-who will always be the largest bloc of disenfranchised people in this country.
We need a program like Medicare-call it Familycare-to drive this investment. America should consider child development a public investment with a monumental payoff.
How do we fix this? The solution, Hilger argues, is to ask less of parents, not more. Parents are expected not only to care for their children but to help them develop the skills they will need to thrive in today’s socioeconomic reality-but most parents, including even the most caring parents on the planet, are not trained in skill development and lack the resources to get help. In The Parent Trap, Nate Hilger combines cutting-edge social science research, revealing historical case studies, and on-the-ground investigation to recast parenting as the hidden crucible of inequality. It’s almost as if parents are set up to fail-and the result is lost opportunities that limit children’s success and make us all worse off. If they ask for help, they are made to feel inadequate there is no centralized organization to represent their interests and there is virtually nothing spent on research and development to help them achieve their goals. Yet this vital work receives little political support, and its primary workers-parents-labor in isolation. Few people realize that raising children is the single largest industry in the United States. How parents have been set up to fail, and why helping them succeed is the key to achieving a fair and prosperous society.
