Acknowledgements
We thank the Arts and Humanities Research Council (UK) for a Research Networks and Workshops Scheme grant that enabled us to hold three inter-disciplinary seminars, at the Institute of Education, London, and KU Leuven, over the course of the 2008–2009 academic year. Our heartfelt thanks and appreciation go to the following participants in these seminars for their intellectual insights, collegiality and commitment to the project: Julia Brannen, Bob Davis, Ros Edwards, Bas Levering, Kristien Nys, Richard Smith and Adam Swift. Thanks also to Miriam David, Naomi Stadlen, Paul Standish and Paul Smeyers for valuable discussions on various aspects of this study, and to Clare Thornbury and Bartel Wilms for unfailingly reliable administrative support.
Notes
1. For an insightful account of the different meanings of ‘parenting support’ in different European countries, and the difficulties this entails for ‘translating’ practices of parent support from one to another country, see the report by Boddy et al. (Citation2009).
