Abstract:
Drawing on interviews with parents and teens, this title offers an intimate account of the different ways that girls and boys in the United States and the Netherlands negotiate love, lust, and growing up. It provides a probing analysis of the way family culture shapes not just sex but also alcohol consumption and parent-teen relationships.

Publisher Synopsis
"With grace and style, Amy Schalet presents a forceful and convincing argument about the divergent cultural approaches to sexuality, socialization of adolescents, and conceptions of citizenship in the United States and the Netherlands, probing deep-seated value differences that play out in the management of sex. Nuanced, well documented, and remarkably persuasive, Not Under My Roof is an exemplary study." (Frank Furstenberg, University of Pennsylvania)" Read more...
