Abstract:
The prime aim of the research was to establish whether children and adolescentsfrom foster families and children and adolescents from single-parent families suffermore from anxiety than the respondents from two-parent families. The sampleincluded 124 respondents, 42 respondents from foster families, 38 children andadolescents from single-parent families and 44 from two-parent families. The resultsindicate that there are differences in the manifestation of anxiety when it comes torespondents from single-parent families and foster families compared to children andadolescents from two-parent families. There are statistically significant differences inthe levels of expression of anxiety among children who live in foster families comparedto children who live with their two-parents and one parent families. Children fromtwo-parent families show less anxiety compared to children from single-parent andfoster families. The conclusion would be that society should provide support to theproblem of anxiety in children and adolescents, as well as the most common mentalproblems in the health, social and educational contexts. The support would refer bothto the prevention of anxiety and to an adequate multidimensional approach in whichspecialists from different fields, trained educators and parents or guardians of childrenwould be involved

Abstract:
How do youth and parents perceive their communication with each other? How do they perceive communication about money with each other? Are there differences between married-parent families and single-parent families? The reported study examined the discrepancies in perception between parents and youth and compares these differences between married and single-parent families. Although single-parent families had greater discrepancies in perceptions regarding communication in general, there was no evidence of such differences in discrepancies regarding communication about money. The finding suggests the importance of youth development programs to provide information and encouragement to both youth and their parents.

Abstract:
AbstractAddressing a gap in the extant literature on single-parent families and juvenile delinquency, we distinguish between different types of single-parent families. Using Dutch population register data on nearly 1.3 million children, we performed logistic regressions to assess the relation between growing up in a single-parent family before age 12 and the likelihood to engage in juvenile delinquency during adolescence. Our findings suggest that the likelihood of juvenile delinquency increases (1) when children are born to a single parent, followed by children with separated parents and children experiencing parental death, compared to children growing up with both biological parents; (2) when the single-parent family started at a younger age; and (3) when children grow up with only a biological mother, for both sons and daughters, compared to only a biological father. The relationship between growing up in single-parent families and juvenile delinquency is much more complex than often assumed. Future research should pay more attention to diversity in the composition of single-parent families.

Abstract:
We use data from the ABS National Health Surveys for 1989/95 and 1995 to examine differences in health care expenditures and health outcomes by family structure. We find that, on average, female single parents tend to experience poorer health outcomes, and exhibit more ‘risky’ health behaviours (particularly smoking), compared to adults in ‘two-parent’ families. Children in female single parent families tend to have more chronic health conditions than children in two-parent families. We also find that single parent families tend to spend a lower proportion of their income on health care, while receiving fewer indirect health care resources through government. Policies that may help reduce the economic and health disadvantages facing single parent families are considered.

Abstract:
There is no doubt that pluralization of society and societal conditions have an impact on the modern family, its role and structure. Changes in the hierarchy of societal values and attitude of society towards family lead to significant changes in its structure and way of functioning. The image of the family consisting of father, mother and children has more often been replaced by the image of families with one parent and children. There are multiple causes of single-parent families (single parenthood) such as death, divorce, abandonment of the family by one of the parents, etc. The positions and attitude of society towards single-parent families is different and it’s actually depending on the cause of their occurrence. The aim of this paper was to identify basic needs and challenges of single-parent families in Serbia. For this purpose, we have organized three focus groups with 18 single mothers (six in each focus group). The results are presented in the context of creating new policies for improving the position of single-parent families in Serbia.

Abstract:
Although recent studies demonstrated that parent-child discrepancies in the perceived family processes were associated with children’s developmental outcomes, few studies have addressed this issue in different types of families in mainland China. The present study investigated that how discrepancies in parents’ and adolescents’ perceptions of parent-adolescent communication were associated with early adolescent depressive symptoms in a nationally representative sample (N = 15,377) with 7010 father-adolescent dyads (adolescents: Mage = 14.24 years, SD = 1.25 years; 5960 adolescents from two-parent families, 443 adolescents from single-father families) and 8367 mother-adolescent dyads (adolescents: Mage = 14.02 years, SD = 1.18 years; 6670 adolescents from two-parent families, 1362 adolescents from single-mother families) in China. Adolescent respondents completed a measure of depressive symptoms and all informants reported on the perceived levels of parent-adolescent communication. Results indicated that adolescents reported parent-child communication more negatively than did their parents. Father-adolescent discrepancies were also greater in intact families than non-intact families. Polynomial regression analyses indicated that while there was a significant interactive effect of father-reported and adolescent-reported father-adolescent communication in Chinese two-parent families, no significant interaction was found for mother-adolescent dyad. Besides, adolescent-reported mother-child communication interacted with mother-reported communication in Chinese single-mother families only. The findings clarify parent-adolescent discrepancies in parent-child communication in different types of families in China and they have theoretical and practical implications on the role of discrepancies in parents and adolescent children on perceived parent-adolescent communication in early adolescent depressive symptoms.

Abstract:
This study addresses two questions: Is stepfamily formation associated with the likelihood that adolescents will initiate alcohol use, and if so, does this association differ by the type of single-parent families from which adolescents move or the type of stepfamilies to which they move? The author found that adolescents who moved to stepfamilies from single-parent families had an elevated risk of initiating alcohol use. A transition from a divorced single-parent family to a stepfamily is associated with an increase in alcohol initiation among boys, but a transition from an unwed single-parent family to a stepfamily is not. In contrast, girls who transition from an unwed single-parent family to a stepfamily show an elevated likelihood of initiating alcohol use, whereas those who transition from divorced single-parent families do not. Adolescents who move to cohabiting stepfamilies do not respond differently than do adolescents who move to married stepfamilies regardless of gender.

Abstract:
In addressing the impact of day care on parents and families, including the children who are in day care, one must first acknowledge the wide heterogeneity of the families who use day care. They include single parents who need to work to support themselves; single parents who are engaged in work-preparation programs in an effort to end their reliance on Aid to Families With Dependent Children (AFDC); single parents receiving AFDC who do not work and who, for various reasons, may have little hope of working, but where it is agreed that they need day care as respite or structure or as an educational or socioaffective experience for the child (a common but often vain intervention, given the quality of care such children are likely to receive); two-parent families who could not afford the most basic expenses without two incomes; two-parent families who could not afford the things they need and want without two incomes; two-parent families where both parents find great pleasure in working; two-parent families where neither really wants to be at home; two-parent families whose careers would suffer grievously if disrupted; and two-parent families where only one parent works but where the parents still choose to have their child in day care. There are certainly many more scenarios, but the point is that one must be careful when talking about the impact of day care because its quality, the reasons for which it is used, and by whom are key factors in determining what the impacts are.

Abstract:
The primary aim of this study was to identify factors associated with resiliency in poor single-parent families. A cross-sectional survey was used to identify and describe resiliency factors that enable families to maintain healthy family functioning. The 51 families that participated in this study were identified by the nature of the crisis and the developmental phase of the family. A biographical questionnaire and several indexes were completed independently by a parent and a child from each family. The results indicated a significant relationship between the families’ adaptation and intrafamilial support, support from family and friends, family hardiness, a positive approach to problems, and religion. The findings can contribute significantly to future interventions and preventive approaches to foster resiliency in families.

Abstract:
Single parent families are form of incomplete family, where one parent is fully responsible for the education and character building of the child. This role vacancy often triggers deviant behavior in children. This study aims to explain communication and children’s deviant behavior in single parent families. This research uses literature study research method with social deviation theory by Edwin H. Sutherland. There are several research results obtained from this study. First, the communication established in single parent families has not been effective. Second, the factors that cause children’s deviant behavior in single parent families are caused by two things, namely disappointment with the situation in the family and the environment of peers who tend to behave deviantly. Third, the role of communication in preventing children’s deviant behavior in single parent families is a major foundation in preventing children’s deviant behavior. This study concludes that authoritative communication is the most appropriate application in single parent families to overcome communication problems in the family. Apart from that, good communication can have a significant impact on parents’ relationships to be able to control and supervise children to prevent deviant behavior.

These relationships were examined through initial and cross-validation studies. Findings disclosed that youngsters who lived with both parents were less likely to report higher substance usage than those who lived with one parent. Also, youngsters who reported better parent-child relationships were more likely to report lower substance usage. Evidence is offered that parent-child relationships may be more important in predicting substance usage than the number of parents at home.

We worked with a non-probabilistic sample of 140 women from Monterrey, N.L, Mexico, 107 are from bi-parent families and 33 from single parent families. Some of the results show that women from single-parent families have lower quality of life (Z = −2.224, p = .026), lower income (Z = −2.727, p = .006) and greater depression (Z = −6.143, p = .001) than women from bi-parental families. The perceived quality of life's predictors, using a multiple regression model (n = 140) were depression, income and number of children, those variables explaining 25.4% of variance.

The number of one parent families has risen by about 80 per cent since 1971, reaching just over a million in 1986. (Haskey 1989). In 1986, they made up 14 per cent of all families with dependent children, and the primary reason for this large increase is marital breakup: about 70 per cent of the increase is attributable to the growth in the number of divorced and separated mothers. At present, 90 per cent of single parents are women, and ¾ of mothers heading one parent families have previously been married.

Abstract:
Single-parent families have historically faced greater economic precarity relative to other family types in the United States. We investigate how and whether those disparities widened after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data on exposure to school and childcare center closures, unemployment, poverty, food hardship, and frequent worrying among single-parent families versus two-parent families throughout 2020 and 2021, we find that the challenges that single parents faced prior to the pandemic generally magnified after the arrival of COVID-19. In April 2020, one in four single parents was unemployed, and unemployment rates recovered more slowly for single parents throughout 2021, perhaps in part due to their unequal exposure to school and childcare closures. The expansion of income transfers largely buffered against potential increases in poverty and hardship, but levels of worrying among single parents continued to worsen throughout 2021.

Abstract:
Some fathers and mothers should carry out their role as parents and are also essential controllers to building a prosperous family in the family sphere. However, the occurrence of a life or death divorce causes the loss of the role of one parent, thus requiring a single parent to carry out both functions. In maintaining the welfare of their families, single parents carry out a livelihood strategy. This study aims to determine the family income strategy of single-parent women in preserving the welfare of their families in Kadugadung Village, Cipeucang District, and Pandeglang Regency. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. The data collection technique uses observation, interview, and documentation techniques, with the focus of the research being on homemakers with single-parent status in Kadugadung Village. They play the role of homemakers while working to meet their lives and children's needs. This study's data sources are divided into two, namely primary and secondary. The results obtained are: 1) Single parent women in Kadugadung village, on average, work in the domestic environment to provide for the family, 2) The livelihood strategies used by single-parent women include active strategies, passive strategies, and network strategies, 3) The condition of single women's families Parents in the village of Kadugadung cannot be said to be prosperous because of low economic conditions so that they cannot fully meet the family's needs.

Abstract:
The article discusses the impact of the increasing divorce rate in China on the prevalence of single-parent families and its influence on the development of children. Children from single-parent families often face challenges due to the incomplete family structure, leading to external behavior problems during adolescence. The article aims to provide a comprehensive review of previous research and examine the implications of single-parent families on adolescent external behavior. It explores the reasons behind behavior problems in these children, including family dynamics, economic circumstances, and societal influences. These factors include the absence of companionship and conflicts between parents at the family level, prejudice against single-parent families and negative social norms at the societal level, and economic constraints leading to materialistic desires. To address these issues and their underlying causes, the article suggests several solutions. For example, social institutions should enhance their supervision of minors, combat prejudice against children from single-parent families, and provide financial support to alleviate economic challenges. Efforts should also be made to improve educational resources. In conclusion, the article aims to enhance the external behavior and overall development of adolescents from single-parent families. By addressing the root causes of behavior problems and implementing practical solutions, it is expected that the well-being and positive outcomes of children from single-parent households can be significantly improved. Future research requires a comprehensive exploration of this topic.

Abstract:
Over the past 20 years, single-parent families have become even more common than the so-called "nuclear family" consisting of a mother, father, and children. Today we see all sorts of single-parent families: headed by either the mother or the father, raising their children. Individuals of all ages experience stress, but single parents are particularly vulnerable. Single parents often complain that they have too much to do, not enough time, and not enough money to maintain themselves and their families. As a consequence of a life-altering catastrophe, such as death or divorce/separation, single parents confront extra difficulties as they cope with the painful emotions that are often associated with such an occurrence.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine the problems of single parent parents in providing religious guidance in the family environment. This study uses a descriptive approach with qualitative research types. The result shows that the single parent problem in providing religious guidance to families in Buluh Engadang village has three problems, namely economic problems, social problems and educational problems. The problem experienced by single parents who are single parents is an economic problem. With this economic problem, single parent parents have spent a lot of time making a living. Single parent social problems studied have different social sides. This difference is motivated by the environment around where single parent parents live. The community considers a single parent with one eye so that people do not believe that single parent parents are unable to raise their children and educate their children, but the reality is that single parent parents are able to send their children to the university level. The problem of single parent education has different levels of education, so that single parent parents realize that education is so important.

Abstract:
Single-Parent families in South Korea have been exposed to discrimination due to social prejudice and conservative views. Considering the rapid changes on family structure and the growing number of one-parent families, risk factors and protective factors on the experience of discrimination among single-parent families are needed to be identified. To identify the impact factors on the experience of discrimination among single-parent families, this study used data from 1,646 single-parent family household owners who raise underage children alone which had been conducted in 2021. Results suggest that gender, age, education, and depression had significant influences on the experience of discrimination. Our results also suggest that the comprehensive approach including psychological support is needed to prevent victimization among one-parent families. Policy suggestions and contents that need additional analysis were discussed.
