To Know from Martin (2015)(pp. 57-62, 176-178) • Uniqueness & Recency of “prolonged childhood” • Implications of that for: • Theory of Natural Selection (shifting reproductive burdens) • “priceless but useless” (M. Small) • “competitive instruments” & ID as “mother of…” • Baseline needs necess. to achieve ideal happiness • Pos. rel. b/w choices/options & anxiety • “Cult of intensive mothering” (S. Hays)
Evolutionary Theory(aka, Social Darwinism) • Strategies increase viability of self, then offspring? • Family marriage (Sprey, 2009)
Inclusive Fitness Theory(Hamilton, 1964) • Help.behav genes pass on • But why would this affect… • Helping & help-willingness w/ genetic relatedness (Burnstein et al., 1994) • Result of evolut of psych process guiding soc.rel’s regardless of kinship? Emotion closeness? (Korchmar, 2006)

(Belsky, 2005) • BUT, resource access INcreased sib conflicts! (Felson, 1983)
Problems with Evolut/Bio Explanation for Understanding Family Comm • Industrialization excluded women from thry of “fittest” survivors w/ auton. choice • If Soc.Interest/Helping sole family goal, then wouldn’t dissolve as often/easily • or communities would do caregiving role
Communicate Bond Belong (CBB) Theory(Hall & Davis, 2017) • All soc.inaxns • Only some (action to meet need) • Competing desires to energy to meet needs • Comm: • Bond: • Bond:
