| Summary | "Rural Problems of Today" by Ernest R. Groves is a socio-psychological examination of contemporary rural life, written in the early 20th century. The book explores a variety of issues affecting rural communities, particularly focusing on the psychological and social aspects of life in the countryside. It aims to address the complexities and challenges faced by rural families and communities, emphasizing the need for social welfare and mental well-being in these settings. The opening of the book sets the stage by discussing the importance of the family structure in rural life, highlighting the delicate balance between providing adequate care for children and not overprotecting them. Groves explores the detrimental effects of both neglect and excessive control, arguing that while love and care are essential, they can lead to negative outcomes if not managed wisely. He emphasizes the necessity for a reevaluation of how families engage with their children and the role of external societal influences, urging a more informed and proactive approach to rural family life.
