This article prsents an analysis of the family context and everyday negotiations around risk, safety and danger between children and parents in four families drawn from a larger qualitative study. The challenges of analysing accounts from several family members are highlighted. Case study families are described; and fragments of their interwoven individual and shared biographies, are outlined. The dynamic, fluid and contingent nature of risk construntion in everyday family life is discussed and three main themes explored: establishing 'the bottom line' ; Assumptions, collusion and contradictions around age, siblinghood and time; and contextualizing risk in the conduct of others. The authors conclude that, just as with childhood itself, it is important also to contextualize 'risk' within socioeconomic, cultural and institutional framework; and that, for most children, their families both constitute one such context and mediate wider social structures.
