Answer to Question 1

A father's absence is due to many factors, including having babies during the teen years and not being able to provide for them financially, deserting unwed mothers, incarceration, physical or mental disabilities, drug abuse, divorce, and not paying child support.Regardless of the reasons, absentee fathers increase their children's likelihood of economic and social deprivation.Many single-mother families were poor even before the father left, but his departure reduced a child's economic resourceseven further. Absent fathers have a huge cost beyond their economicimpact. Compared with two-parent homes, children of fatherless families havemore behavior problems, do less well in school, have higher drug and alcoholusage rates, have poorer physical and mental health, and are more likely to enterthe juvenile justice system.
