With one-third of persons of Mexican descent under the age of fifteen, many of the challenges center on the current well-being of children and their future prospects.

The studies invoke theories from social science disciplines such as sociology, anthropology, and psychology. Contributors use a variety of analytical strategies, including ethnographic methods and quantitative analysis.…
