Document Summary
Different parent-child relationships yield different outcomes; different environments yield different outcomes: systems understanding of development, precludes reductionistic parental mold models - why do we say how do the dad"s actions affect the child . Transactional nature of family interactions - kids affect fathers. Contexts of children"s development: there have been cohort changes in culturally grounded gender values, don"t have any data either way - traditional or new fluid/dynamic styles of families; don"t have. Shifting role enactments - the number of dual-career families has increased. Differential treatment of boys and girls; like more tenderness towards girls than boys if they get hurt; males treat emotion and handle pain/failure/embarrassment differently; both men and women differentially treat boys and girls; messages being conveyed. Stereotypical specializations from traditional gender division of labor; you get taught things consistent with your sex and taught less of the so-called cross-sex roles.
