Effects of Single Parenting on ChildrenSingle parenting, as you might expect, has both positive and negative effects. First, for the good news. Children of single parents tend to be more responsible and mature than children of dual parents. They tend to have closer ties to family, and if not economically deprived, tend to set their achievements high. Poverty, of course, has so many negative effects that it can counteract the positive effects. On the other hand, children of single parents can have a distorted image of marriage. If the single parent has a significant other, or, if the child has a lot of role models (i.e., aunts and uncles), this effect can be counteracted. In addition, young children desperately need contact with members of the missing gender. This is because each sex has specific things they offer.
