Summary

Has parenting changed over recent decades? Do parents supervise and control their offspring more or less closely than they used to? Do they show more or less parental involvement? Spend more or less time caring for young people, in conversation and joint activities? Can changes in parenting explain the rise in adolescent problem behaviour?
