Description This chapter elaborated on how families organize care, what kind of care they provide to their children and dependent elderly members, how the responsibilities and tasks are shared, and how they combine caregiving with other commitments in their daily lives such as paid work and family life. The attention is paid to the participants’ negative and positive experiences with care services and provision, as well as their discursive reflections on matters such as problems and deficiencies, solutions to such problems, and emerging and possible innovation.
