In the Netherlands, where teenage pregnancies are far less frequent than in the United States, parents aim above all for family cohesiveness, often permitting young couples to sleep together and providing them with contraceptives. Probing our child-rearing for what it tells us about our culture, Amy Schalet's Not Under my Roof offers an unprecedented, intimate account of the different ways that girls and boys in both countries negotiate sex, love, and growing up."--P.
