Growing Up in Stepfamilies
By Gill Gorell Barnes, Gwyn Daniel, Natasha Burchardt, Paul Thompson
352 pages
Synopsis
Millions of children in Britain now grow up in stepfamilies, but little is reliably known about their experiences of stepfamily life--or why some of these young people encounter problems in the long run while other flourish. This is a new, pioneering, multidisciplinary study that tracks the lives of fifty children born in 1958, offering unique insights into the long-term effects of stepfamily life in the UK today. It will interest many scholars and students of sociology, social policy, public policy/administration, and psychology.
