In The PhD Parenthood Trap, Kerry F. Crawford and Leah C. Windsor use insights from original survey data and vignettes from scholars to reveal the realities of raising kids-on or off the tenure track-and suggest reforms to help support parents throughout their careers.
Review Quotes:
Impressively informative, exceptionally well organized and presented, The PhD Parenthood Trap: Caught Between Work and Family in Academia is especially recommended reading for scholars, academic mentors, and university administrators who would benefit from empirical evidence and suggested steps to break down personal and structural barriers between parenthood and scholarly careers.
