About the Book

Is it important for parents to take an active role in supporting their children’s learning processes?

How can you be more empowered in your child’s education?

Is your child at a potential advantage or disadvantage due to your family’s income?

In her latest work, author Mattie Lee Solomon, PhD, documents various parental perspectives on these and many other questions concerning involvement in the learning processes of children. Missing Link presents a collection of data gathered from interviews with parents from all walks of life to discover more about what parents think of the education of their children. Furthermore, Solomon offers valuable information about getting involved in your child’s education and linking up with other parents for ideas on how to enhance your child’s learning experience.

Also included are some of the important questions used during these interviews. Designed to encourage reflection, these questions can help parents determine if, in their child’s education, they are in fact the missing link.
