چکیده

A large body of literature has shown marked differences in the average level of child well-being across different family structures. Findings suggest that children living with two married parents are relatively advantaged; children living with two cohabiting unmarried parents generally have slightly worse outcomes than those living with married parents; while those living with a lone parent fare the worst (for reviews see Amato and Keith, 1991a; Amato and Keith, 1991b; Amato, 2000; McLanahan and Sandefur, 1994; SigleRushton and McLanahan, 2004). Although studies examining cognitive, educational and behavioural outcomes are more numerous, there is some evidence of differentials in physical health (Harknett, 2009).
