There are differences in the meaning of motherhood from one society to another, and radical variations in ideas about conception, birth, child rearing and relationships between parents and children. In Ghanaian societies, traditionally, motherhood and a woman's place and status are intricately bound. There is a strong pro-natalist tendency, mothers of many children are highly regarded, whilst infertile women are stigmatised. Equally, having a child in the wrong circumstances adversely affects a woman's social profile. The book discusses the various social aspects of motherhood and argues that a higher regard for individual religious and cultural convictions and choices would improve our understanding of what having children means to women.

This doctoral research explores young people"s specific imaginings, expectations and experiences in relation to migration. In line with the tenets of the sociology of childhood, this qualitative study aims to bring children"s voices into the debate on migration. In order to achieve this, the study investigates the imaginings of Italy (the country, the people, everyday life) among Ghanaian children left behind by migrant parents. It looks at migrant children"s own assessment of their previously-held expectations in the light of the experience of moving. It also explores how children born in Italy of Ghanaian parents imagine Ghana and how they relate to it. The questions the research set out to investigate are: how do children imagine a country they do not know directly but to which, through significant others, they have emotional ties? What is the role of these imagined countries in the children"s expectations and ambitions for the future? How do young people assess their expectations in the light of the encounter with reality? The findings reveal how the children invest their own specific expectations for social advancement in the migratory project; trace the echo of colonial discourses in their characterisation of Ghana and Italy; illustrate the disappointment migrant children experience when faced with the social demotion migration almost inevitably entails. The study also explores the important role played by the children in maintaining social ties across borders and the way in which they appear to live within "transnational emotional spaces". It investigates how young migrants keep dreams and aspiration alive by repositioning them in space, to yet another country. Finally, the research shows how the children share, but also resist, dominant stereotypes, and how they play with and between different cultural expectations in order to defy and resist adults" demands.

What does it mean to be a child in Africa? In the detached Western media, narratives of penury, wickedness and death have dominated portrayals of African childhood. The hegemonic lens of the West has failed to take into account the intricacies of not only what it means to be an African child in local and culturally specific contexts, but also African childhood in general. Challenging colonial discourses, this edited volume guides the reader through different comprehensions and perspectives of childhood in Africa. Using a blend of theory, empiricism and history, the contributors to this volume offer studies from a range of fields including African literature, Afro-centric psychology and sociology. Importantly, in its eclectic geographical coverage of Africa, this book unashamedly presents the good, the bad and the ugly of African childhood. The resilience, creativity, pains and triumphs of African childhood are skilfully woven together to present the myriad of lived experiences and aspirations of children from across Africa. As an important contribution to African childhood studies, this book has the potential to be used by policymakers to shape, sustain or change socio-cultural, economic and education systems that accommodate African childhood dynamics and experiences at different levels.
