Troubled : A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class. by Henderson, Rob. Gallery Books, 2024. Call #: ON ORDER Subjects BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs   PSYCHOLOGY / Social Psychology   SOCIAL SCIENCE / Social Classes & Economic Disparity ISBN:  9781982168537 Description:  336 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  Rob Henderson was born to a drug-addicted mother and a father he never met, ultimately shuttling between ten different foster homes. Divorce, tragedy, poverty, and violence marked his adolescent and teen years, propelling Henderson to join the military after high school. 'Troubled' recounts Hendersons young life and juxtaposes his story with those of his friends who wound up incarcerated or killed. His greatest achievements - a military career, an education from Yale, a PhD from Cambridge - feel like hollow measures of success. He argues that stability at home is more important than external accomplishments, and he illustrates the ways the most privileged among us benefit from a set of social standards that actively harm the most vulnerable.
