Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When controlling for monetary and non-monetary resources, the relationship between being raised in a single-parent home and low academic achievement is reduced or may even disappear. This suggests that the challenges faced by children in single-parent homes may be related more to a lack of resources rather than the family structure itself.
