Gelber has written a very serious and sophisticated history of crafts and hobbies in America, along the way readers are treated to a trip down a memory lane, first of collecting--stamps, coins, picture cards, dolls, and so forth--and, then, of hobbies such as embroidery for girls or modeling for boys.
Being a parent comes with a multitude of responsibilities and duties. Of course, you want your children to grow up to be healthy, happy and exceptional adults, but for that to happen your children need to be properly cared for, guided, loved, disciplined, taught and encouraged along the way. From the moment your child is born, it's your responsibility to care for him and keep him healthy.
Parents rights include: the right to the care, custody and control of their child; the right to discipline the child; and the right to control the religious and moral education of the child. Children are under the charge of their parents and are expected to live with them and obey them. Parents also must support their children. Normally, the state cannot interfere with these rights, so long as the parent fulfills his or her obligations to provide for the childs care and support. When parents do not support and care for their children, the state may intervene.
