Home by Choice: Raising Emotionally Secure Children in an Insecure World

Its one of the toughest choices a mother will ever make: to work or be a full-time mother? It is also a long-running debate between moms who feel they contribute more to society at work than at home and those who feel mothering is not just a full-time job but a calling. In this newly repackaged expanded and updated edition of Home by Choice national authority Dr. Brenda Hunter brings research to the discussion table arguing that no one can replace the care a mother provides. As kids grow up with parental presence she says they develop a sense of home that will serve them all their lives. Dr. Hunter speaks directly to moms addressing their unique concerns-such as financial pressure support from husbands and personal fulfillment. She makes a well-reasoned case for the enduring effects of a mothers love.
