Yes, mom's boyfriend is the biggest risk to the kids. Not just and man.

Where do you get your information from?

77% of kids are abused by a parent. "Most child victims are abused by a parent. In 2021, a reported 452,313 perpetrators abused or neglected a child. In substantiated child abuse cases, 77% of children were victimized by a parent."

https://www.nationalchildrensalliance.org/media-room/national-statistics-on-child-abuse/

And, men and women abuse kids equally with more women than men:

Children residing in households with adults unrelated to them were 8 times more likely to die of maltreatment than children in households with 2 biological parents

Well my single mother of four .( Dad was a complete shit.)Raised four great kids pulled us out of Catholic school because abuse was rampant in ours.

Three doctors and a computer scientist. All well adjusted. No one in a cult.

Yeah single mothers rock.

Single mothers don't rock. You were an outlier.

or not, perhaps the OPINION piece is just confused between correlation and causation.

Do you really believe that?

If you read the actual research it says that it all comes down to resources. Women who have an education and resource have the same outcome as 2 parent homes. Also, it says if the woman has resources, but the husband does not bring resources to the marriage, the marriage privilege is erased.

The vast majority of the women raising kids alone don't have the resources. That's why the opinion holds.

Then say that, say poor women who are single parents are not a good thing, but if you have resources being a single mother has not affect on your children's outcome.

Also say being poor is not a good thing because being married and poor is "not a good thing".

Are you slow or something? Why does the obvious need to be pointed out to you?

Duh. This is something that conservatives already know and have known for years.

That has nothing to do with single parenting.

It could be an uncle in a 2 parent household.

So you don’t understand the science.

Being poor is bad not being a single parent.

So we should celebrate and encourage poor single parenting because it works out for rich single parents?

It could be an uncle in a 2 parent household.

You can still be a single parent with a boyfriend in the house. Much more dangerous than the child's other parent in the house.

Studies like this stigmatize by generalizing. It really comes down to individual situations, but there is no study money in that.

We should do research that is responsible.

Being poor is bad for children regardless of their parents marital status.

If women have resources then they should not be compelled to marry simply because they want a child.

Poor people should also not be compelled to have children they can’t afford.

Write an article/book telling poor married people to stop having children because it’s “not good”.

Of the male perpetrators, 51% were biological fathers. The second largest group of male perpetrators was nonparents (26%) who included male relatives (12%), male nonrelatives (13%), and those with a combination of nonparental relationships (1%). Boyfriends accounted for 10% and stepfathers for 8%.
