在过去的40年里，劳动力市场在从工业经济向后工业经济的转变过程中经历了相当大的变化。深刻的经济、社会和政治发展导致了劳动力的女性化。在紧缩措施加剧了个人提供经济援助的责任之际，政府政策将父母以及越来越多的母亲的就业定位为儿童贫困的一种补救措施。地理学家从成年人的角度探讨了妇女承担的不平等护理负担以及塑造劳动力市场依恋的性别道德理性。本文将这一重点转移到儿童对中产阶级和工薪阶层家庭父母在就业和社会再生产方面的性别责任的理解上。首先，它认为男性养家糊口的角色在中产阶级家庭中持续存在，导致母亲的有偿工作被子女视为补充。其次，本文探讨了儿童如何理解劳动力市场对工薪阶层父亲的不安全感，以及这如何影响他们的母亲，迫使妇女就业以支持家庭收入。第三，考虑了那些生活在低收入、没有保障的父母工作的日常现实中的儿童的经历，因为没有保障的工作的负面影响渗透到了家庭中。最后，这篇论文强调了考虑儿童对性别父母角色的看法的重要性，无论是在此时此地，还是在年轻人展望自己的家庭和劳动力市场未来的时候。
Over the last 40 years, the labour market has undergone considerable change in the shift from an industrial to postindustrial economy. Profound economic, social and political developments have resulted in the feminisation of the labour force. Employment for parents, and increasingly mothers, is positioned by government policy as a remedy to child poverty at a time when individual responsibility for financial provision intensifies under austerity measures. Geographers have explored the unequal burdens of care borne by women and the gendered moral rationalities which shape labour market attachment from the perspective of adults. This paper shifts this focus to take account of children's understandings of the gendered responsibilities of parents in middle- and workingclass families in relation to employment and social reproduction. Firstly, it considers the persistence of the male breadwinning role in middle-class households, resulting in mothers' paid work being viewed as supplementary by children. Secondly, the paper explores how children understand labour market insecurity for working-class fathers and how this impacts upon their mothers, compelling women into employment to bolster the family income. Thirdly, the paper gives consideration to the experiences of those children who live with the everyday reality of low-paid, insecure parental employment, as the negative effects of insecure work permeate the family. In conclusion, the paper highlights the importance of considering children's perceptions of gendered parenting roles both in the here and now, but also as young people look towards their own family and labour market futures.
按性别团结还是按阶级划分？
