Single parent families

Major advances in genotyping technology have generated high-density maps of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers that provide an unprecedented opportunity to identify genes underlying complex traits. Several family-based statistical methods showing robust population stratification have been developed to test the association between multiple markers and disease-susceptibility genes.

Our final set of results addresses heterogeneity in the effects of television on test scores. The effects on verbal, reading, and gen- eral knowledge scores are most positive for children from house- holds where English is not the primary language, for children whose mothers have less than a high school education, and for nonwhite children. When we combine student observables into a single index of parental investment—the time parents spent read- ing to their children in early childhood—we find that the effect of television is significantly more positive the lower is parental investment.

A 7-year-old, only child of a single mother develops a sleep disturbance in which he resists going to bed and, once in his bedroom, cries for hours on end for his mother to comfort him. She regularly ends up sleeping in his bed with him as the only way to get him to go to sleep and to allow her to have any peace.

The differences in family structures are also confirmed by household statistics. Whereas single households have by now become the most frequent household size in some European agglomerations, they continue to be the exception in Mexico: Single households make up only 1.5% of all households in the 2000 population census (compared to 1.0% in 1990). While two thirds of all households consist of couples with or without children (or one parent with children), roughly one third of households include more persons (e.g. grandparents, other relatives etc; see Table 5).

This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Households participating in the Food Stamp Program are increasingly headed by a single parent or two working parents. As this trend continues, more low-income households may find it difficult to allocate the time needed to prepare meals that fit within a limited budget and meet dietary requirements. This study finds that household time resources significantly affect how much time is allocated to preparing food.
