Academic Achievement and Children from Single or Two-Parent Homes
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page report discusses the differences that exist in academic achievement of children from a single parent home and those from homes in which two parents are present. Convincing arguments have been made for all sides of the question. In fact, there are those researchers who believe that it is not possible to accurately determine a child’s academic progress or capability based on just the issue of whether they are from one- or two-parent family homes. For example questions should be asked about socio-economic status, whether the child has a meaningful and positive relationship with the parent living outside the home, and if the child’s parent has never been married, has been widowed rather than divorced, and whether or not one of the parents is a step-parent.
