Book Synopsis Manufacturing "bad Mothers" by : Karen Swift
Book excerpt: A complex and punitive child welfare system has emerged, based on a view that the children of mothers providing deficient childcare require legally sanctioned rescue by those better suited to care for them. Karen Swift challenges both the accepted view of child neglect and the present official response to it.
