Detailed analysis of the interview data revealed the extent to which economic, cultural, social and personal resources are interdependent in families. Clear relationships were also evident between the resources held by particular parents and the childrearing practices they pursued. Parents with access to middle-class resources (such as money, high status social contacts and legitimated cultural knowledge) drew on these capitals to consolidate their power and advantage, and invested heavily in their children’s education as a method of transferring this privilege., Raising the ‘Meritocracy’: Parenting and the Individualization of Social Class n Val Gillies London South Bank University Sociology Copyright © 2005 BSA Publications Ltd® Volume 39(5): 835–853 ????

This moral mission structuring government family policy is characterized by a punitive approach towards parents described by the Home Office as ‘unwilling or unable to respond to support when offered’ (Home Office 2003a: 9). This includes the fining of parents whose children commit crimes or miss school, and the imprisonment parents of persistent truants. The White Paper Respect & Responsibility –Taking a Stand Against Anti-Social Behaviour contained even more severe proposals, including benefit cuts for errant families, the removal of persistent young offenders from their families for placement in foster homes, and the committal of parents to residential homes for ‘re-training’ (Home Office, 2003b)., ???? ????, At risk adolescents: their perception of parenting styles Helen J Boon James Cook University Correspondence: Helen J Boon, School of Education, Western Campus, James Cook University, Townsville, Queensland, 4811, Australia.

Primary responsibility for the development and well being of children lies within the family, and all segments of society must support families as they rear their children. 2. Assuring the well-being of all families is the cornerstone of a healthy society, and requires universal access to support programs and services. 3. Children and families exist as part of an ecological system. 4. Child-rearing patterns are influenced by parents’ understandings of child development and of their children’s unique characteristics, personal sense of competence, and cultural and community traditions and mores. 5. Enabling families to build on their own strengths and capacities promotes the healthy development of children. 6. The developmental processes that make up parenthood and family life create needs that are unique at each stage in the life span. 7. Families are empowered when they have access to information and other resources and take action to improve the well-being of children, families and communities. ???? ????, Raising the ‘Meritocracy’: Parenting and the Individualization of Social Class n Val Gillies London South Bank University Sociology Copyright © 2005 BSA Publications Ltd® Volume 39(5): 835–853 ????
