What will be an ideal response?
Answer the following statements true (T) or false (F)
1. The total number of single-mother and single-father families has increased fourfold over the past 60 years. 2. The rise in single-parent families is largely due to the rise in teenage unmarried women who are having babies. 3. As compared to children growing up in heterosexual households, children in same-sex households show no significant differences in psychological well-being, performance in school, substance abuse, delinquency, or early sexual experiences, although they are more likely to have a homosexual experience or to envision that they could have one in the future. 4. Although most aspects of raising children are similar regardless of parents’ sexual orientation (e.g., the daily tasks of getting children to school on time, taking children to soccer practice, or getting involved in the PTA), several specific features can affect the dynamics of lesbians and gays raising children. 5. Children separated from their parents and living with their grandparents usually experience trauma, but living with a grandparent, rather than a nonrelative or living in an institution, can minimize that trauma by providing a sense of continuity and family support.
