How do young graduates view the role of immediate families in influencing/supporting them as they start their working lives and how do those reflections affect how they think of themselves as graduates? Social, political and economic changes have led to many young people being dependent on family for longer, but how does this play out in their reflections? This article addresses these questions by reporting upon findings from qualitative research with 14 young people from working‐class backgrounds, who were part of a larger study of recent graduates. Figured Worlds theory illuminates data, with a consideration of the role that family plays in the ‘space of authoring’ and understanding of ‘positionality’. Findings capture vivid stories of the enabling but also limiting role of family. In our analysis of data, we borrow the words ‘salience’ from Holland and her co‐authors and ‘distinction’ from Bourdieu, which help capture different depictions of family. Both articulations of ‘salience’ and a search for ‘distinction’ emerge in how graduates’ stories respond to family. We argue for a greater appreciation of the differing family resources of working‐class graduates, and reject an emphasis on what they may lack, compared to their peers, which has tended to be the case in some media and policy commentary. There are implications for educators to foster student reflexivity about family sensitively, and to be aware of how family backgrounds may influence graduate career paths and students’ awareness of wider inequalities.

工人阶级毕业生早期职业的家庭故事

年轻的毕业生如何看待直系亲属在开始工作生活中对他们的影响/提供的支持?这些反思如何影响他们对毕业生的看法?社会,政治和经济变化导致许多年轻人对家庭的依赖时间延长,但这在他们的反思中如何发挥作用?本文通过对14名来自工人阶级背景的年轻人进行定性研究的结果进行报告,从而解决了这些问题,这些年轻人是对最近的毕业生进行的一项较大研究的一部分。人物世界理论照亮了数据,同时考虑了家庭在“创作空间”中的作用以及对“位置性”的理解。调查结果生动地讲述了家庭的既有作用但又有局限性的故事。在我们的数据分析中 我们借用了Holland和她的合著者的“显着性”一词,以及借用Bourdieu的“区别性”一词,这有助于捕捉家庭的不同描述。毕业生的故事对家庭的反应方式既体现了“显着性”,又体现了对“区别性”的追求。我们主张对工人阶级毕业生的家庭资源有更多的了解,并拒绝强调与同龄人相比他们可能缺乏的东西,在某些媒体和政策评论中往往如此。对于教育者来说,这意味着要培养学生对家庭的敏感反应,并意识到家庭背景如何影响研究生的职业道路以及学生对更广泛的不平等现象的认识。毕业生的故事对家庭的反应方式既体现了“显着性”,又体现了对“区别性”的追求。我们主张对工人阶级毕业生的家庭资源有更多的了解,并拒绝强调与同龄人相比他们可能缺乏的东西,在某些媒体和政策评论中往往如此。对于教育者来说,这意味着要培养学生对家庭的敏感反应,并意识到家庭背景如何影响研究生的职业道路以及学生对更广泛的不平等现象的认识。毕业生的故事对家庭的反应方式既体现了“显着性”,又体现了对“区别性”的追求。我们主张对工人阶级毕业生的家庭资源有更多的了解,并拒绝强调与同龄人相比他们可能缺乏的东西,在某些媒体和政策评论中往往如此。对于教育者来说,这意味着要培养学生对家庭的敏感反应,并意识到家庭背景如何影响研究生的职业道路以及学生对更广泛的不平等现象的认识。在某些媒体和政策评论中,情况往往如此。对于教育工作者而言,这意味着要提高学生对家庭的敏感反应能力,并意识到家庭背景如何影响研究生的职业道路以及学生对更广泛的不平等现象的认识。在某些媒体和政策评论中,情况往往如此。对于教育者来说,这意味着要培养学生对家庭的敏感反应,并意识到家庭背景如何影响研究生的职业道路以及学生对更广泛的不平等现象的认识。
