We are directed to "mind the time" on occasions when diligence to
the clock is important. However, to deliberately invoke "mind your
time" is to remember how quickly time, and the clock which serves
as its agent, can so quickly recede into the mundane and taken for
granted parts of our lives. The experience of time in families can
both permeate all activities but nevertheless be hidden. The papers
in this volume, representing a range of disciplines (history,
sociology, psychology, family therapy, leisure studies, family
science) intentionally foreground the way that time shapes everyday
family worlds. Each chapter offers different insights into the way
that we conceptualize time including analyses of pace, rhythm,
negotiation, politics, timetables, schedules, social interaction
and support. The meaning of time is illustrated through analyses of
a variety of family issues including father involvement,
infertility, work and family, mothering and care work, housework,
family time, single parent families, family life education and
gender.
