How do lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer stepfamilies forge a path towards plural parenting, how do federal and state family laws shape the respondent families’ parent– child relationships, and are lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer stepparent families formed after dissolutions of heterosexual relationships different from stepfamilies formed after the dissolution of queer relationships?

ABSTRACT This article draws on participant observations and interviews with 35 single mothers and five social workers from NGOs that assist single mothers in Thailand. It reveals that single mothers experience intersectional stigma in their everyday lives, based on their gender, class, ethnicity, religious status and other dominant categories manifested in Thai society. Moreover, the stigmatization is a differentiated process, which is affected by social distance; it begins with self-stigmatization and moves outwards to family, community, and ultimately to the Thai state and society. With the increase of social distance, the degree of intersectional stigma becomes more severe and more complex. By rejecting the view of stigmatization as a homogeneous, analogous and monolithic set of experiences, and demonstrating that single mothers in Thailand face multiple forms of oppression and marginalization, the study contributes to theorizing the plurality of intersecting stigmatization.

ABSTRACT A number of studies have documented a positive (causal) relationship between fathers’ uptake of parental leave and a more equitable division of unpaid labour in Western contexts, primarily where men contribute to a fair share of unpaid work and fathers’ uptake of leave is common. South Korea offers an apt and contrasting setting to explore this relationship, with its highly gendered division of unpaid labour and low use of fathers’ leave, despite recent increases. This study finds that fathers who have taken (long) leave contribute more to housework as well as both developmental and routine childcare than fathers with neither leave plan nor experience. For housework and developmental childcare, this difference is mostly explained by already involved fathers self-selecting into leave. For routine childcare, there is limited evidence to suggest that very long leave of one year or longer could potentially make fathers more involved. In short, the gender equalising impact of fathers’ uptake of parental leave in Korea appears to be restricted mainly to long leave and routine childcare, if there exists any significant effect at all. Overall, this paper suggests that the gender equalising effect of fathers’ leave may vary depending on the stage of the gender revolution.

ABSTRACT This research is inspired by Michael’s Rush work. In-depth interviews of 30 Swedish, German and Japanese fathers regarding their attitudes towards traditional, modern and ideal images of fatherhood were conducted. Three videos of fathers’ normal daily life relating to their practices of fatherhood, including time spent on housework and child care are shot separately in Stockholm, Stuttgart, and Fukuoka. The following results show that the path of fatherhood in these three countries is shifting away from the traditional role. In Sweden, fatherhood is changing from traditional father to dual carer model. In Germany, fatherhood is transitioning toward a second-mother model. Finally, in Japan, fatherhood is turning toward a struggling model. Three primary factors accelerate the pace of these changes: family-friendly social policies, de-patriarchy family, and increasing individualistic-oriented socio-culture. Furthermore, three main barriers persist against a dual-carer society: hierarchical corporate culture, ‘male-headed’ in public areas and ‘housewife keeping’ in private areas. To conclude, this study suggests that globally, fatherhood keeps its second-mother or struggling status, but with an increasing emphasis on Nordic dual-earner and dual-career crystallizing in Germany and Japan. That means diminishing devoted wife and caring mother and enhancing democratic and involved father, which is also predicted by Rush (2015).

ABSTRACT The experience of post-traumatic stress has been implicated in adverse outcomes for trauma-exposed parents and their children. The aim of this qualitative study was to explore how ex-military service (veteran) fathers who had received a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) experience and make sense of parenthood, their role as a father, and the parent-child relationship. Ten ex-military fathers from the UK who had been diagnosed with PTSD engaged in interviews which were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The analysis resulted in four themes; ‘Not always being the father I want to be’, ‘Striving to protect’, ‘Developing insight and understanding’, and ‘Protective influence of children’. These themes captured participants’ experiences of the perceived negative impact of PTSD symptoms on parenting and an evolving view of the self as a parent in relation to this, taking action to protect children from distress and harm, the importance of developing insights and understanding both personally and within parent-child relationships, and the distracting and motivating influence of children and enjoyment of the parenting role despite the challenges experienced in the context of a PTSD diagnosis. Findings are discussed in relation to the extant literature, and clinical and research implications are outlined.
