Concerning Children, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, was first published in 1900 and focuses on how society can be improved through better nurturing of the younger generations. Reminiscent of Supernanny Jo Frost and Dr. Spock, Charlotte Perkins Gilman offers a surprisingly modern take on child-rearing in this influential parenting handbook, which still resonates with feminist readers today. Gilman echoes the old African proverb "It takes a village to raise a child", and considers this in the context of a patriarchal US society. From discussions of building resilience in children to gender and obedience, Gilman manages to encompass politics, economic, and societal arguments as well as gender, sexism, and new motherhood all in one fascinating book which aims to improve the community at large. Concerning Children will delight fans of Gilman's other works such as 'The Home, Its Work and Influence'.-
