84
Q

Child Support Agency (CSA)

A

Set up by conservatives in 1993. Designed to reduce the number of LPFs by stressing financial responsibility. Enforcing absent parents to financially support their children.

85
Q

Reasons for the link between low living standards and LPFs

A

Lack of affordable childcare which prevents LPFs from working.
Inadequate welfare benefits.
Most LPFs are women who earn less than men.
Failure of fathers to pay maintenance, especially is they have formed a second family.

86
Q

Renvoize (1985)

A

Q

McCarthy et al (2003)

A

Argue that there is great diversity amongst reconstituted families - some have tensions whilst others have no more tensions than intact nuclear families.

100
Q

Ferri and Smith (1998)

A

Found reconstituted families are at greater risk of poverty because there are often more children to support and stepfather may have too support children from a previous relationship. Conclude that the involvement of stepparents in childcare and childrearing is usually positive and similar to first families in all major respects.

101
Q

In 85% of reconstituted families

A

At least one child is from the woman’s previous relationship.

102
Q

Reasons for patterns and trends within reconstituted families:

Changes in parental relationship status

A

Increase in LPFs.
Factors that cause an increase in lone parent families, such as divorce and separation, are also responsible for the creation of reconstituted step families.

103
Q

Reasons for children coming from a woman’s previous relationship in reconstituted families:

Children usually remain with the mother

A

Women are more likely to take main caring responsibilities for any children when relationships break down, therefore becoming lone parents.

108
Q

Stonewall (2012)

A

Estimate 5-7% of the adult population today have same-sex relationships.

109
Q

Reasons for increase in same-sex couple families:

Changes in legislation

A

Adoption for same-sex couples became legal in 2005.
Same legal rights to parenthood as everyone else.

110
Q

Centre for family research at Cambridge (2010)

A

111
Q

1967

A

Male homosexual acts were decriminalised

112
Q

Weeks (1999)

A

Increased social acceptance may explain a trend towards same-sex cohabitation and stable relationships that resemble those found among homosexuals.
Saw homosexual individuals as creating families based on creating “friendship as kindship”.
Described these families as “chosen families”

113
Q

Allan and Crow

A

Lack of legal frameworks for homosexual relationships. meant that same-sex partners had to negotiate their commitment and responsibilities more than married couples.
Thought that this made same-sex couples more flexible and less stable than straight couples.

114
Q

Reasons for increase in same-sex couple families:

Changing social attitudes

A

Opinion polls show more tolerance of homosexuality.
In 2000 the age of consent was equalised.
In 2014 same-sex couples were allowed to marry.
In 2004 same-sex couples given same legal rights as married couples in respect of pensions, inheritance, tenancies, and property.

A

the nuclear family.

119
Q

A

1% in 2012

120
Q

Rosser and Harris (1965)

A

Found that whilst the nuclear family had become the focus of family life, the extended family continued to have a role.
Argues high levels of individual, social, and geographical mobility and dispersal did not prevent the maintenance of high levels of contact between extended kin.
Acknowledged that the nature, function, and role of the extended family have been modified: favoured the term “modified extended family”.

121
Q

Chamberlain (1999)

A

Study of Caribbean families in Britain found that despite being geographically dispersed extended families continued to provide support.
“Multiple nuclear families”, with close frequent contact between siblings, uncles, aunts, and cousins, who make contributions to childrearing.

Increased life expectancy means more surviving grandparents and great-grandparents.
Smaller family sizes meaning people have fewer siblings, and thus fewer horizontal ties.

124
Q

Brannen (2003)

A

Described beanpole family as “long and thin”

125
Q

Reasons for changes in extended families:

Beanpole families

Changes in demographic factors including increased life expectancy and smaller families explain why there is a “long and thin structure”

126
Q

Reasons for changes in extended families:

Changes in technology allowing people to remain in contact despite being physically distant.

127
Q

Finch and Mason (1993)

Found over 90% of people had given or received financial help and over half had cared for a sick relative. However there is some variability: found that more is expected of females than males. Principle or reciprocity is also important.

128

129
Q

Mason (2011)

A

130
Q

Black families:

Higher proportion of female headed LPFs

A

Under slavery, when couples were sold separately children stayed with the mother. It is argued that this established a pattern of family life which persists today.
Male unemployment and poverty means black men are less able to provide for their family, resulting in higher rates of desertion or marital breakdown.

131
Q

In 2012 1/2 of all families with dependent children headend by a black person

A

were lone parent.

132
Q

Mirza (1997)

Found that extended families provided an important source of support among migrants during 50s and 60s. In this early period of migration houses often shared by extended families, whereas today Asian households are nuclear.
Relatives often live nearby though, reflecting the importance of kinship networks.

136
Q

Ballard (1990)

A

Found whilst many marriages are arranged and seen as a family contract, children today increasingly expect to have more say in marriage partners and expect more independence from kin.

137

Divorce, lone parents and smaller families were now found within the British Asian community.
More likely than other ethnic groups to marry and marry earlier than their white peers: cohabitation, separation, and divorce were relatively rare.
Many couples including those with children, still continue to live in the same house as the males parents.

138
Q

How are Asian households organised?

A

Larger than other ethnic groups.
