I must stress, though, that I am no expert in your field. My interest and experience lies in people\u2019s family lives in general. So, I will do my best in making links between my interest and yours, and I hope that you will be able to fill in any gaps.<\/p>\n<p>In my lecture, I will address some of the debates about how to refer to children and young people who are from a \u2018mixed\u2019 racial or ethnic, and maybe also a \u2018mixed\u2019 faith, background, and how these relate to the politics of identity. I hope that this will explain to any of you who are perplexed as to why my lecture title refers to \u2018mixed\u2019 children. Having done that, I will be moving on to more important issues. I will give you a picture of \u2018mixed\u2019 families across Britain, before looking at the ways that parents from different backgrounds attempt to deal with difference and a sense of belonging for their children, how schools may be a resource in this, and their hopes for their children\u2019s future&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Read the entire paper <a href=\"http:\/\/www.derby.ac.uk\/files\/icegs_difference_and_belonging_hopes_and_fears2008.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Difference and Belonging, Hopes and Fears: Parenting \u2018mixed\u2019 children and the implications for career development International Center for Guidence Studies (iCEGS) University of Derby Occasional Paper 2008 16 pages 3 charts; 1 table Rosalind Edwards, Professor in Social Policy and Director of the Families &amp; Social Capital Research Group London South Bank University From the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[414,125,8,14,394,10],"tags":[4071,683,4070],"class_list":["post-9415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-family","category-identitydevelopment","category-media-archive","category-papers","category-socialscience","category-uk","tag-international-center-for-guidence-studies","tag-rosalind-edwards","tag-university-of-derby"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9415\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
