Description
The essays in Religious Upbringing and the Costs of Freedom are the personal stories of philosophers who were brought up religiously and have broken free, in one way or another, from restraint and oppression.
As trained philosophers, they are well equipped to reflect on and analyze their experiences.
In this book, they offer not only stories of stress and liberation but ruminations on the moral issues that arise when parents and other caregivers, in seeking to do good by their children, sometimes end up doing real harm to their personal development and sense of autonomy as individuals. In addition to the editors, the contributors are Raymond D.
Bradley, Damien Alexander DuPont, Diane Enns, Paul H.
Hirst, Amalia Jiva, Irfan Khawaja, Christine Overall, Tasia R.
Persson, and Glen Pettigrove.
