Love & Economics Why the Laissez-Faire Family Doesn't Work

We come into the world not as rational adults but as babies -- helpless, self-centered, and impulsive.

So-called substitutes for the family -- single parents, government programs, and daycare -- cannot fill this role.-- What did adopting a badly neglected orphan teach Dr. Morse about love and politics?-- Do "single parents" and "quality daycare" exist?-- Why is cohabitation harmful?Morse, Jennifer Roback is the author of 'Love & Economics Why the Laissez-Faire Family Doesn't Work' with ISBN 9781890626433 and ISBN 1890626430.
