Many fathers are now providing hands-on, engaged care to babies and
young children. This book draws on observations of, and interviews
with, caregiving fathers, as well as analyses of fathers' memoirs
and online blogs, to examine fathers' caregiving work as embodied
practice and as lived experience.
Boomers are heading into (very) old age following a pandemic, a
time of overt ageism and deficient eldercare. The front wave, now
in their seventies, are on the brink of life changes that will
challenge everyone - family, friends, and the health care system
too. Recognizing the dire need to meet these challenges, Gillian
Ranson investigates what they are doing to prepare for old age.
Regardless of their situation - well off or struggling, partnered
or on their own - front-wave boomers share one thing: the need for
intimate, caring social ties. Many of them are making these
connections with creativity and resilience. Their stories hold
lessons for us all.
