Children in Danger: Coping With the Consequences of Community Violence

Average rating
4 out of 5
Based on 2 Ratings and 2 Reviews

Book Description
By the time they were five, virtually all the children in a public housing project had firsthand knowledge of shootings, stabbings, and homicide. They lived not in Beirut but Chicago. Now the authors reveal how chronic violence affects a child's growth, exploration, and psychological development and show how teachers and social workers can help "to restore the child to childhood".
