This book explores the topic of family obligations following
changes in family structure caused by divorce and remarriage.
Family obligations are commonly defined as the rights and duties
that accompany family roles. They have been described as the "glue"
that connects generations, as well as the "oughts" and "shoulds"
that surround individual family relationships. This book is
primarily concerned with normative beliefs about what family
members should do for each other. It differs from previous accounts
of family obligation norms because it specifically focuses on
family responsibilities after divorce and remarriage, two events
that affect an increasing number of families today. The authors
draw extensively upon the findings of 13 studies of normative
beliefs regarding post-divorce intergenerational family
obligations. This book fills a gap in the present literature
concerning family obligation. It addresses the weaknesses of prior
research by focusing on family transitions and by presenting data
from studies that employ contextual methods. The content will
provide guidance to policymakers and helping professionals who work
with families, and the unique focus and procedures of the studies
are likely to set the standard for future assessments of normative
beliefs about family obligations.
