Abstract

Some perspectives on society, family and childhood leave us with the impression that contemporary children are growing up in a post-traditional society that has decisively broken away from previous values. Based on a representative study of specific maternal childrearing values in a Scandinavian welfare society (Denmark) this article will present results that challenge this proposition. The actual degree of change and continuity is discussed, highlighting some important relationships between maternal vocational/educational background, childrearing beliefs, sanctions and the child’s temperamental style.
