Research Abstract |
We aim at elucidating the characteristics of contemporary Japanese family and kin relationships based on historical sociological ie study. As it is a long project, this time it needs to be approached from the empirical method, focusing on residential pattern, residential proximity between grandparents and children, and childcare support from the kin members as well as their family image. As a result, though the extended family is very rare, married children often reside in the near town whose parents live in. Grandparents, especially mothers' mothers, support their daughters' childcare. It arises not only from the traditional family norm, but also from the general mother-daughter relationships.
