Description
Summary:Why is it that abused children often go on to abuse their own children? How can this characteristic cycle of parental rejection and violence be explained? Is the explanation the same for all cultures? In The Warmth Dimension, Rohner breaks new ground by offering a theoretical foundation for the problem of child abuse. Drawing on data from many societies, both industrialized and non-industrialized, he studies the effects of parental rejection on children within the framework of his Parental-Acceptance Rejection Theory. Moreover, he offers insights into the conditions enabling individuals to break the cycle of abuse
