Beschreibung
Young parenthood cannot be understood without attention to housing. Where young parents live, and the support available to them, shapes how care is organised, relationships are sustained and homes are made. And yet, young parenthood is too often viewed through a lens of deficit, obscuring how parenting takes place within unequal housing, welfare and family contexts. Drawing on qualitative longitudinal research with low-income young mothers and fathers, this book examines how young people enter parenthood, navigate relationships and housing pathways, and create homes for their children. Bringing together youth transitions, housing studies, family practices and gender, it develops a relational account of young parenthood, demonstrating how housing can provide a secure base for parenting. Empirically rich and policy relevant, this is a must-read for scholars, students, policy makers and practitioners interested in young parenthood, housing, family life, youth transitions and inequalities.
