title = "Parenting on the edge: Ideals and Practices of Parental Involvement",
abstract = "This chapter presents an analysis of parents{\textquoteright} perspectives on good parenthood when subject to interventions from the Danish Child Protection Services. It is based on a qualitative, empirical data. The aim is to explore how parents process instructions from professionals regarding, for example, their child{\textquoteright}s health and daily routines, and what such instructions mean to parents in their daily lives. The professionals{\textquoteright} instructions are analysed as intertwined with the complex everyday life of the children and parents. Parenthood is conceptualised as a social practice, embedded in societal structures. This means that it is the daily parental activities in the home and daily tasks in relation to supporting children{\textquoteright}s participation in other life contexts (e.g. day care) that are explored and analysed.",
