Answer to Question 1

In middle childhood, control begins to be transferred from parent to child. This transition period is known as coregulation. As much as 75 percent of African-American children born to married parents will experience being raised in a single-parent family at some point in their lives. Generally, schools and peers take on increased importance in the child's life, yet most children report that parents continue to be an importance source of emotional support. Children who experience divorce are likely to have long-term problems, particularly if the parents do not agree on child-rearing issues. Maternal employment, long feared to have severe negative consequences for children, appears to not have such dramatic negative effects. Some research shows that children whose mothers work outside the home are better adjusted than those whose mothers work in the home.
