Definición

  • Single-parent families are comprised of one parent raising children without the other parent living in the same household. Many factors have contributed to an increase in the proportion of single-parent households, including divorce, cohabitation, unwed births, teenage pregnancy, death of a spouse, or the decision to have or adopt a child without another parent or partner.
