Examines the Protestant origins of motherhood and the child consumerThroughout history, the responsibility for childrens moral wellbeing has fallen into the laps of mothers. In The Moral Project of Childhood, the noted childhood studies scholar Daniel Thomas Cook illustrates how mothers in the nineteenthcentury United States meticulously managed their childrens needs and wants, pleasures and pains, through the material world so as to produce the child as a moral project.Drawing on a century of religiouslyoriented child care advice in womens periodicals, he examines how children ultimately came to be understood by mothersand later, by commercial actorsas consumers. From concerns about taste, to forms of discipline and punishment, to play and toys, Cook delves into the social politics of motherhood, historical anxieties about childhood, and early childrens consumer culture.An engaging read, The Moral Project of Childhood provides a rich cultural history of childhood.

I was hoping for practical advice in 'The Moral Project of Childhood,' but it turned out to be more theoretical than I expected. The writing style was challenging to get through, and I felt it could have used more examples. Not really what I was looking for.

Interesting Concepts, But Somewhat Dense
This book has some really thought-provoking ideas about children's consumer culture, but I found it a bit dense at times. It took me a while to get through certain sections. Still, it raised important questions and has valuable content for parents and educators alike.
