年轻夫妇“两头走”——乡村家庭权力结构变迁的新现象

近年来,年轻夫妇“两头走”这一新型家庭居住模式逐渐在鄂西农村变得普遍起来。通过实地调查着重分析了这种物理空间意义上的居住模式重塑的微观家庭权力结构,进而探讨家庭成员间的权利义务关系的变迁。不同于传统从父居模式下的以男方父代家庭与年轻夫妇为主、女方父代家庭较为次要的主次型家庭权力结构,两头走的婚居模式形塑的家庭权力结构为男女双方父代家庭与年轻夫妇的三角平等结构。这对我们认识当下的代际关系与养老、年轻人的独立等问题有着现实意义。

幼儿园亲子活动的开展对于加强家园合作、增进亲子情感交流、促进幼儿健康发展具有重要意义。家长作为亲子活动的重要参与者,其角色的正确定位影响到亲子活动的价值。目前,在幼儿园亲子活动开展的过程中,家长容易扮演四种错误角色：缺位者、旁观者、执行者和强制者,这一现象的存在使活动的意义受到影响。基于此,文章从家长自身、幼儿以及幼儿园三个方面探讨影响家长角色定位的因素,并就如何正确定位家长的角色提出了建议。     

Parenting Disputes After Separation and Divorce: Who Needs a Family Lawyer?

Australia's family law system continues to be plagued by serious delays. This article acknowledges the need for legal interventions in post‐separation parenting disputes in which individuals may be at risk, or in cases of genuine emergency. The article next contrasts cases involving significant risk or urgency with the many ‘ordinary’ (even if sometimes complex) post‐separation disputes over parenting in which these circumstances are not present. I argue that in such cases, legal advice, legally informed dispute processes, and court hearings are remnants from earlier attitudes to separation and divorce. These interventions are expensive, frequently destructive of ongoing parental relationships, and at their heart, inappropriate for considering the needs of children. They also divert time and resources from the critical investigative and legal decision‐making processes needed in urgent or risk‐related cases. I propose that legal narratives in ‘ordinary’ post‐separation parenting disputes be replaced by narratives focused on the main drivers of these disputes, which are invariably expressed in terms of relationship difficulties. Such narratives are amenable to facilitative, therapeutic, and systemic interventions aimed at achieving self‐determined resolutions. They contrast markedly with narratives reflecting common law notion of normative resolutions derived from the application of legal precedent. Key issues in the first section of the article are then teased out via the reflections of an imaginary separated parent in an ‘ordinary,’ albeit difficult and emotionally intense, dispute about how to care for the children. In the final section, I offer brief clinical and systemic reflections on past practice and on future narratives focused on individual self‐determination.     

Socialization Processes and Clergy Offenders

This article uses feminist theory to investigate how the socialization processes used to maintain the clergy community in the Roman Catholic Church contributes to a vulnerability in some clergy for sexually abusing children. This vulnerability is identified first in an examination of the literature on the impact of socialization processes on clergy offenders between the 1960s and 1980s. A comparison is then made with the implications of the apostolic exhortation, Pastores Dabo Vobis, which provides a theological basis to clergy formation. The article argues that the document works to ensure a continuity of socialization processes that not only have been shown to create a vulnerability for committing child sexual abuse but compound existing vulnerabilities. The article concludes that constraints produced by the preservation of a hegemonic masculinity and patriarchy retain a threat of violence against children and require recommended reforms.
