About the Book
Grandparenting in the United States, edited by Madonna Harrington Meyer and Ynesse Abdul-Malak, offers a comprehensive exploration of the evolving role of grandparents in the lives of families across the U.S. The book uses a mix of quantitative and qualitative data sets to examine how grandparenting varies based on factors such as living arrangements, economic status, education, gender, race, and ethnicity.
The contributors delve into the various impacts grandparenting has on both grandparents and grandchildren, highlighting the significant role grandparents play in caregiving, emotional support, and family dynamics. The text provides a nuanced analysis of how stratifying variables shape grandparenting experiences, offering valuable insights into the complexities of intergenerational relationships.
This book is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and practitioners in the fields of sociology, gerontology, family studies, and social work, as it examines the intersection of social structures with familial roles and provides a multi-dimensional view of grandparenting across diverse communities.
