I have found my favorite parenting book. So, okay, it's the only parenting book I've ever read, but I love economics and statistics. "Selfish Reasons..." highlights exactly what parents can and can't influence in their children's lives. Through using the latest twin and adoption studies from around North America and Europe, Bryan Caplan shows that nature, not nurture, governs your child's happiness, criminality, education/intelligence, future economic success, religious and political enthusiasm, and nearly everything else modern parents attempt to engender in their children. His conclusion is that while it's well-meaning to provide our children with every available opportunity and try to ingrain in them a specific sense of purpose, scientific data doesn't show that all that extra, tiresome effort produces much more in the way of results. On his list of traits, he finds that only three things show nurture effects: The first two are political and religious affiliation, despite level of religiosity. But most of all, appreciation. That is, the one thing our kids will take with them is their impression of us and what kind of relationship we had with them. And that impression will remain with them their entire life. The goal of the book is to convince people that having more kids than they think they can is a good idea. He's not saying everyone should have 8-10 kids, but if you have no kids, you might consider one. Couples with one kid might do better with 2-3, and people with 3 kids might do better with 4-5. The idea being if parents give themselves a break and let go of the illusion they can control their children's future, having kids isn't nearly as expensive and tiring as it seems. And the rewards later in life are greater. He succeeds as far as I'm concerned, and he does so with data, figures, and a lot of economist talk about incentives and rewards. The book is very positive and a great read for anyone thinking of becoming a parent or already a parent and wondering if they should have another child.
