Violence, drugs, uncaring communities, poverty, abusive families, and custody battles are poisoning their lives. Children's psychological health and overall well-being are endangered as well. Author James Garbarino, whose thirty-year career has focused on the effects of violence and abuse on child development, draws attention to these dangers and explains how to strengthen children, families, and communities to help protect children against these toxic influences. His book is designed to inspire parents, policy makers, professionals, spiritual leaders, and all concerned citizens to take action and begin the process of detoxifying our children's social environments. Drawing from a wide range of research, Garbarino explains how a socially toxic environment plays out in the lives of children - helping us understand the developmental toll it exacts from them. He also points to the power we hold to reverse the process by offering alternatives aimed at restoring children's sense of safety in the world.
