Relationships between adult partners following divorce or separation can be fragile, and the issues which have divided the parents are often hard to disentangle from the ongoing relationships between parents and children. There is a small group who have ongoing difficulty and who need professional help and legal intervention to make arrangements for ongoing parenting. This volume brings together a wealth of new empirical research from the USA, Central, North Western and Southern Europe, and Australia on the nature and importance of children's relationships with parents after parental separation, on the kinds of conflicts which develop, and on the range of professional interventions which support parents and children through these difficult times

Dorénavant bien inscrite dans la mouvance des formes familiales, la monoparentalité possède de multiples visages et dénominations qui varient selon les époques, les situations, les personnes et les régions du globe. Dans Les parents au singulier, l'auteure aborde les différents types de monoparentalité - imposée, choisie, transitoire, circonstancielle ou à temps partiel - comme autant de réalités personnelles. Elle évoque de façon aussi précise que nuancée ce que cette organisation familiale représente, au féminin comme au masculin : questionnements, défis, choix, possibles pièges affectifs, sacrifices, réorganisation, adaptation et réalisations, à tous les niveaux. Des hommes et des femmes d'âges, de statuts, d'origine et de milieux différents qui vivent ou l'ont vécue y ajoutent également une part de leur expérience. Ces sincères et touchantes prises de paroles, bien réelles, sont porteuses d'espoir pour tous les parents qui endossent seuls ou presque seuls la responsabilité de leurs enfants, selon différentes circonstances, pour un moment ou pour toute une vie. À cela s'ajoutent de nombreux outils touchant à la fois aux aspects économiques, pratiques, sociaux et éducatifs. Ces références aident concrètement à trouver de nouvelles ressources intérieures et extérieures.
