The Family and Education in the Postmodern World.
Elkind, David
Momentum, v22 n3 p9-11 Sep 1991
Postmodern social changes, ways these changes have contributed to the assumption of additional child-rearing functions by schools, and the modeling role of Catholic and other religious schools are discussed. Controversies in secular and religious schools arise from the transition from modern to postmodern values, not from parents'/schools' bad intentions. (SLD)
