Luara Ferracioli

Parenting and the Goods of Childhood

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this book, Luara Ferracioli defends a new theory of the moral right to parent by focusing on the special role of parents in creating the conditions for the flourishing of their children irrespective of whether there is a biological connection between them, and by explaining why the parent-child relationship remains valuable even after the child reaches the age of majority. Ferracioli argues that justice towards children requires that the liberal state make adoption more desirable and feasible for its citizens. The book provides a partial theory of childrearing which focuses on the goods of childhood that parents are primarily responsible for fostering: carefreeness, enjoyment-driven or curiosity-driven achievement, and friendship.
