Isi artikel

In this article, child-care arrangements that involve mothers living separately from their children under 5 years of age in Bangkok we examined. I focus on how changes in women's roles and family structure may lead to increased dependence on child care outside the maternal household. Is living separately a common feature of the Thai kinship system, or is it predominantly a child-care choice for working women Event history analysis is used to identify the factors that lead to a child living separately from his or her mother. Living separately is closely related to the mother's work status. This finding is discussed in light of the impact of socioeconomic change on the family in a rapidly industrializing society.
