Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Single-parent families are defined as families where a parent is absent and the remaining parent is taking on the majority of the parenting responsibilities. This can occur due to divorce, marital separation, out-of-wedlock pregnancy, or death. The term "broken families" is not commonly used in academic or professional settings, and the term "families of divorce" is too narrow and excludes other potential reasons for a parent's absence. "Dysfunctional families" implies a broader range of issues beyond just the absence of a parent.
