Until very recently, the ideal parent was invisible. But suddenly everybody - political parties, pressure groups, educationalists and the media - particularly the media - is interested in "the parent question": how do we make good parents? But who defines "good" anyway? Can there be a consensus on parenting? And why has a vague national anxiety become a moral panic? This book explores the debate.
