Abstract
Most individuals in negotiating a path through their biological and social development will enter into varied states of cooperation with, and incur numerous obligations towards, a number of other individuals, principally parents, mate(s) and children. The implications carried by specific events for the social groupings which emerge will vary with different types of decisions and problems characterising particular stages of life cycle development.
Research for this paper was completed in my capacity as New Blood lecturer, in the Department of Sociology and Social Policy, University of Durham.
