ABSTRACT

Class-based parenting logic transcends national culture. This is what we found when applying Laureau’s (2011. Unequal childhoods: Class, race, and family life with an update a decade later (2nd ed.). University of California Press) schema of concerted cultivation for middle/higher class families and accomplishment of natural growth for working-class families to young parents in Singapore. Through in-depth interviews with 10 low-SES parents and eight high-SES parents between the ages of 27 and 37, we found Laureau’s distinctions evident even in this young Asian country where the middle class has only recently emerged. Interviewing young adults at a stage in life when they were forming their parenting ideals, the intergenerational transmission of logics was apparent. So were constraints of work and earnings in shaping the intergenerational logics. The findings suggest that improving outcomes of low-SES children requires going beyond parenting programmes to tackling structures in society that harden class lines, e.g. education and work systems.

贫穷地成长:新加坡的代际阶级育儿逻辑

摘要

基于阶级的育儿逻辑超越了民族文化。这是我们在应用 Laureau 的(2011 年。不平等的童年:阶级、种族和家庭生活,十年后更新)时发现的(第 2 版)。加州大学出版社)新加坡中高阶层家庭协同培育与工薪阶层家庭自然成长成就图。通过对年龄在 27 至 37 岁之间的 10 位低社会经济地位父母和 8 位高社会经济地位父母的深入访谈,我们发现即使在这个中产阶级最近才出现的年轻亚洲国家,劳罗的与众不同之处也很明显。采访处于形成育儿理想的人生阶段的年轻人,逻辑的代际传递是显而易见的。在塑造代际逻辑时,工作和收入的限制也是如此。研究结果表明,改善低 SES 儿童的结果需要超越育儿计划,以解决社会中强化阶级界限的结构,例如
