[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived and worked in Boston up until recently. So many 40 plus, never married, educated and career focused women I knew just decided to forgo getting married or quit looking for a man and opted for a sperm donor instead. They have a nanny or 2 and see their kids on the weekend. I wonder if one were to compare their kids outcomes to a comparable heterosexual couple (upper middle class or higher, educated with careers) what the main difference would be if any. [/quote]

The study shows the children have the same outcome. [/quote]

…in terms of what can be objectively measured.

But you can’t easily measure whether someone has Daddy issues, trust issues, attachment issues, etc.

Kids raised by happily married parents tend to have the best relationships. [/quote]

kids raised by two parents tend to be in home with arguing, abuse and absent fathers even if they live in the home.

The opinion piece is comparing 2 parents with money to poor single women. It's a silly comparison. A mom with resources does not raise somebody with "daddy issues" because there was never a daddy to abandon them. [/quote]
