It is easy to understand how formal education for family living was bypassed in the early years of U.S. history. Pioneer life was hard, and children’s lives were often short and tragic. The people of this time were not playing business strategy games to get ahead in the corporate world.  At a survival level, the tasks needed for daily living have always taken precedence over the finer subtleties of excellence in parenting and family life. Youcha (1995) reports that during the seventeenth century, one child in 10 died before his or her first birthday. Today, the infant mortality ratio is less than one in 100 overall (although it is still drastically higher among disadvantaged groups and in developing countries.) Recollections from early settlers and Native Americans illustrate the fragility and harsh demands of family life, threatened by one another.

Life among Indian tribes and settlers on the western frontier left minimal time to ponder parenting and life-management skills. Pretty Shield, a Crow Indian, recalled the expectations of the powerful women in her tribe during the late 1800s:

We women had our children to care for, meat to cook and to dry, robes to dress, skins to tan, clothes, lodges and moccasins to make. Besides these things we not only pitched the lodges, but took them down and packed the horses and the tents when we moved camp. We gathered the wood for our fires too. We were busy, especially when we were going to move. ( As cited in Bartley & Loxton, 1991, p.7)
