From preconception, through pregnancy, and while parenting, women are held to ever-higher standards and are finding themselves punished – both socially and criminally – for failing to live up to these norms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFailing Moms\u003c\/em\u003e uncovers how women of all ethnic backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses have been interrogated, held against their will, and jailed for a rapidly expanding list of offenses such as falling down the stairs while pregnant or letting a child spend time alone in a park, actions that were not considered criminal a generation ago. While poor mothers and moms of colour are targeted the most, all mums are in jeopardy, whether they realise it or not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWomen and mothers are disproportionately held accountable compared to men and fathers who do not see their reproduction policed and almost never incur charges for “failure to protect.” The gendered inequality of prosecutions reveals them to be more about controlling women than protecting children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUsing a reproductive justice lens, Caitlin Killian analyses how and why mothers are on a precipice and what must change to prevent mass penalisation and instead support mothers and their children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47383793074412,"sku":"9781509557738","price":42.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/12599633482725.jpg?v=1773380792"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/caitlin-killian.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
