Conclusion. 001438312 506__ $$aAccess limited to authorized users. 001438312 520__ $$aThis book argues that new parents are caught in an uncomfortable crossfire between two competing discourses: those around ideal relationships and those around ideal parenting. The author suggests that parents are pressured to be equal partners while also being asked to parent their children intensively, in ways markedly more demanding of mothers. Reconciling these ideals has the potential to create resentment and disappointment. Drawing on research with couples in London as they became parents, the book points to the social pressures at play in raising the next generation at material, physiological and cultural levels. Chapters explore these levels through concrete practices: birth, feeding and sleepingthree of the most highly moralised areas of contemporary parenting culture. Charlotte Faircloth is Associate Professor of Social Science in the UCL Social Research Institute, UK. Her work focuses on parenting, gender and reproduction using qualitative and cross-cultural methodologies from sociological and anthropological perspectives. Her research has explored infant feeding, couple relationships, intergenerational relations and the impact of COVID-19 on family life. 001438312 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001438312 650_0 $$aParenthood. 001438312 650_0 $$aParenting. 001438312 650_0 $$aParent and child. 001438312 650_0 $$aCouples. 001438312 650_6 $$aCondition de parents. 001438312 650_6 $$aRĂ´le parental. 001438312 650_6 $$aParents et enfants. 001438312 650_6 $$aCouples. 001438312 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001438312 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030774023$$z9783030774028$$w(OCoLC)1249091657 001438312 852__ $$bebk 001438312 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-77403-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001438312 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1438312$$pGLOBAL_SET 001438312 980__ $$aBIB 001438312 980__ $$aEBOOK 001438312 982__ $$aEbook 001438312 983__ $$aOnline 001438312 994__ $$a92$$bISE
