Grandchildhood in Multigenerational Living: Practices, Meanings, Relations is the first book to sociologically analyse grandchild-grandparent relationships from the perspective of grandchildren. Expanding the knowledge about hitherto under-researched grandchildren, this book puts grandchildren’s perspectives in the centre of qualitative analysis focuses. Presenting grandchildhood in its complexity, the author addresses its multiple dimensions from 54 in-depth interviews with grandchildren living in three-generation households with their parents and grandparents. Drawing upon 'family practices', this book conceptionally develops ‘grandchild practices’ as a new approach to see the diversities and similarities, harmonies and tensions, joys and obligations, or, simply put, the daily ambivalences of family relationships. This unique book is an indispensable resource for researchers and students of family studies and sociology of generations who wish to investigate how grandchildren understand, negotiate and make sense of their relationships with grandparents.
