要旨/Abstract: Shared care, in which children live with both parents after separation, has become an increasingly common post-separation family arrangement across Europe, often celebrated as a success story of gender equality and involved fatherhood. Yet its growing prevalence raises important questions about inequality, family well-being, and the capacity of welfare states to respond to changing family forms.
Drawing on findings from a comparative European research project, this presentation shows the social and economic implications of shared care after separation, with particular attention to inequalities in access to shared care and its consequences for parents and children. The presentation also introduces the Finnish institutional, legal, and policy framework governing child custody and shared care. It concludes by discussing how family policies can better reflect the realities of children growing up across two parental households.
