Lareau is the author of Home Advantage: Social Class and Parental Intervention in Elementary Education (1989 .

Lareau does sociology and lay readers alike an important service in her engaging book, Unequal Childhoods, by showing us exactly what kinds of knowledge, upbringing, skills, and bureaucratic savvy are involved in this idea, and how powerfully inequality in this realm perpetuates economic inequality.

This historical and sociological survey of two communities looks into the relation between parents and teachers of different social classes and puts forward the argument that social class, independent of ability, does affect schooling, because of the availability of money and time. This book does not concentrate on one social institution but on family life and school life. With family life, the middle class parent is more likely to take their work home with them. Yet Lareau's research also shows that middle class parents are more inclined to spend more time and money on their children's education. The book ends with a personal essay on the common problems faced in this sort of field work.

It's an older book, but provides a useful lens for analyzing the effects of social class in schools. While the schools I have experienced in my career are more complex and diverse than those in Lareau's analysis, the fact that the two schools in her book were simple in terms of the populations served strengthened the narrative. As a newly minted administrator diving into the cultural proficiency literature, I have one word for this book: classic.

I picked up on "Home Advantage" after reading and enjoying "Unequal childhoods" by the same author. This book serves as the prequel. Familiar Readers can expect Annette to conduct a study at a small town in northern California on primary school children. She observes, interviews, and questions parents and teachers about the children picked for the study, seeking to know how social class influences parent's role in their child's first years of school.

The book is interesting in a way because I got to learn the involvements and interventions that is done by parents of different social class standing during the first years of their child's education. I believe the comparison of middle and working classes is the greatest component of this book, because it offers a chance to see both worlds on how the each family of the two different social classes work out and carry their own ideology with the involvement in their child's critical primitive years in education.

A must read for any students. As an ivy leaguer I was both impressed and left attenuated by the sheer information drawn out in Lareau's book. I found the book very insightful. One may think they know what there is to about child rearing, however, there is, as they say in lay terms, more than meets the eye. Plus Lareau teaches at Penn :) Go QUAKERS!

this was a required book for school. I would never read it only on my own and I would not recommend it if you are looking for a fun book to read.
This is a very good ethnography which compares two elementary schools, one predominately working class and the other predominately upper middle class, in California. Contrary to the pernicious stereotypes which many of us entertain, Lareau found that working class parents are just as interested in education for their children as upper middle class parents. However, working class parents are predisposed to defer to the judgment of teachers, guidance counselors, and other school officials, whom they regard as professionals with special skills and insights. As a result, poor grades, assignment to a devalued group, and stern discipline for real or imagined misbehavior go unchallenged.

By sharp contrast, upper middle class parents have tacitly adopted the motto "my kid -- right or wrong, smart or stupid, hardworking or lazy -- he or she will succeed." Upper middle class parents are effectively instrusive, well connected, and tend to regard teachers as pseudo-professionals, their social inferiors.

Having read Lareau's account, it's easy to see why other ethnographers have found upper middle class resistance to the elimination of curriculum tracking. Upper middle class parents know how to work the system to secure advantages for their children.

Some readers may judge that the quality of Lareau's ethnography would be improved had she spent as much time with working class parents as with upper middle class parents. However, the upper middle class parents were purposefully ubiquitous, while the working class parents were respectfully remote. Thus, this seeming deficiency may reasonably be construed as but a reflection of the way the world works.
