Description

Explore the profound impact of China's one-child policy on modern family structures in this Routledge Contemporary China Series title. Set against the backdrop of urban Xiamen, this book examines the reality of raising a generation often referred to as "little suns" or "little emperors." As parents enter the workforce, grandparents are frequently recruited to provide essential childcare. This study looks beyond the stereotype of spoiled children to investigate the lived experiences of three generations living in close quarters. By viewing the relationship between grandparents and parents as an intergenerational parenting coalition, the author provides a deep look into how Chinese families adapt to changing social and legal landscapes. This work is an essential resource for readers interested in anthropology, sociology, and the changing dynamics of the modern Chinese household. It offers a detailed perspective on how policy changes shape the way children are raised and how family bonds function in a rapidly evolving society.
