摘要
In this article, we examine the intricate dynamics of caregiving arrangements where individuals under the age of 18 and older adults care for each other and share caregiving responsibilities for other household members experiencing chronic illness, disability, or medical needs. Drawing on a subset of geospatial maps, sketch mapping, and interview data collected from a two-year research project with caregiving youth, the article explores how caregiving shapes the lived experiences of both young people and older adults in peri-urban Florida, and the spaces and places available to them in their everyday care routines. The analysis provides valuable insights into the broader societal implications of intergenerational caregiving, remaining sensitive to the varieties of care arrangements that support the health and well-being of families with aging adults.
