In “Childcare in Transition,” @anushe.bsky.social, @rebeccasear.bsky.social et al show kids were less likely to get “low- and high-intensity care from their fathers & paternal kin” in town vs. village; maternal kin gave similar care in either. @lshtm.bsky.social read.dukeupress.edu/demography/a...

New paper led by @anushe.bsky.social on alloparenting in Tanzania. Child care assistance surely benefits child health, but we find little evidence that specific care arrangements are more resilient than others. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
