I am curious about. . .

It seemed to be easier raising children years ago. Society has become complex; more mothers are in the workforce; more children are raised in single-parent households and there are increasingly more choices involving pregancy and starting a family.Every Parent's Guide to the Law by Deborah L. Forman offers practical advice to the problems and situations parents face daily and an awareness of legal issues parents may encounter. This valuable reference book should be in every parent's library. Useful as a reference tool, it is also well-written and an easy read. Case studies are interspersed throughout and help interpert complex legal problems.I would recommend this book to anyone starting a family or to parents with children at home.
