Abstract
The number of single parent families is on the rise. In 1980 the u. s. Census Bureau reported that 19% of the nations' school children are now living in a single parent household (S.P.H.) This is an increase from "11% in 1970". The Census Bureau has projected that "48% of all children born in 1980 will live a 'considerable' time with only one parent before they reach the age of 18." Today as many as 12 million children reside in a single parent household (S.P.H.)
