The authors show how many fathers in the Sharing Care study had come to regard themselves as largely interchangeable with their partners in their caregiving and how most were successfully discharging a striking range of care responsibilities that went significantly beyond dominant notions of masculinity or fatherhood. However, certain key aspects of parenting, including emotional comfort, care coordination and networking with other parents, had sometimes remained centred on mothers, and the authors outline domestic and external factors that had apparently placed limits on the extent to which the fathers’ parenting had become fully gender-neutral.","PeriodicalId":290750,"journal":{"name":"Sharing Care","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126035075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first part focuses on the now quite extensive body of work on fatherly involvement in general, exploring the extent to which approaches and understandings have changed over recent years. The second part shifts the focus to the minority of fathers whose practices go beyond what might be expected of a secondary caregiver or supporter, considering the growing literature on stay-at-home dads, fathers who take extended periods of parental leave (some of it caring alone), and those who share care more-or-less equally with their partners.","PeriodicalId":290750,"journal":{"name":"Sharing Care","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117323836","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Daytime Social Isolation from Other Parents","authors":"Rachel Brooks, P. Hodkinson","doi":"10.2307/j.ctv13qfvh2.9","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2307/j.ctv13qfvh2.9","url":null,"abstract":"This chapter outlines how the fathers in the study often felt out-of-place within daytime spaces, experienced difficulties interacting with other parents, and were sometimes isolated on the days they cared for their children alone. Comparing these findings with existing literature, the authors explore the reasons why caregiving fathers tend to stay at home alone with their children and the implications for their own well-being and for the prospects of broader take-up by men of shared care arrangements. While fathers themselves commonly individualised the issue by putting their isolation down to their own introverted nature, the authors’ analysis suggests more collective and structural factors were at play. The chapter explores the implications of these findings for some of the themes raised in previous chapters of the book, including their impact on the establishment of ‘interchangeable’ parental identities and the development of the men’s fatherly care horizons – suggesting that, for many although not all of our fathers, while experiences within the home were largely positive, parenting outside the home and in daytime public spaces presented a challenge.","PeriodicalId":290750,"journal":{"name":"Sharing Care","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117031092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
