Description
If parenthood were a function of biology, adoptive parents, for instance, ought not to be considered parents???which is absurd. Thus, it follows that biology cannot be an essential component of parenthood.? Concomitantly, if parenthood were merely a function of law, all those who have parented children without being their legal parents would be stripped of their de facto parenthood ... If, then, parenthood is neither a function of biology nor simply law???what is it? What does being a parent truly mean? Rooted in the author's own experience as a father of three, "The Wisdom of Parenthood" is an insightful, original, and provocative philosophical meditation on the meaning, experience, and practice of parenthood.
