Parenting and Children's Resilience in Military Families

​​​This volume focuses on the crucial role of parenting for the current and future generation of US military families. This is the first book to focus strictly on parenting in military families. It's aimed at scholars and practitioners with the goal of highlighting extant scholarship, research gaps, and effective and promising programs, policies, and practices in support of military families. Many years of developmental research has shown the crucial role of parenting in shaping children’s adjustment and resilience, and particularly so in stressful contexts. Family stress models suggest – and have shown – that in times of challenge, parenting functions as a key mediator of the impact of stress on children. ​
