Single Mothers and Child Support in Extended-Family Households
Extended-family households are common among single mothers. Using Luxembourg Income Study data from waves 2014–2019, we study child support receipt among single mothers living in extended-family households in Chile, Guatemala, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay. We have three aims: to present the prevalence and characteristics of single mothers living with relatives, compare the level of child support received by extended-family and other single…
Assessing Meaningful Interaction in Focus Group Discussions Conducted Over WhatsApp
Focus group discussions (FGDs) differ from other qualitative data collection techniques because they offer unique insights into how collective sense-making occurs in real time in social settings. However, systematic qualitative tools to analyze interaction in FGDs and the richness of data it yields remain scarce. In this article, we propose a seven qualitative indicator model, adapted from previous studies on FGD data quality, to assess group int…
Family issues and custodial mothers' quest for justice
Access to justice is limited for many worldwide. Although prior research generally recognizes the legal needs and barriers faced by women, less is known about mothers. This study examined the legal needs of mothers in different family configurations and the actions they took in response to these needs through the lens of help‐seeking theories. We used unique data from the 2016 Colombian Quality of Life Survey (QLS) to produce descriptive statisti…

Three-generation households in the U.S
Barriers to Formal Child Support Payment
Child support income has the potential to substantially reduce economic hardship for children living apart from their fathers, but many fathers have limited earnings and are unable to pay the support they owe. Understanding their employment barriers has implications for their child support payments and for child support agency services. Using data from a survey of nearly 3,800 noncustodial fathers in seven states, we find that more than half of t…
Noncustodial fathers’ financial contributions to children in three-generation households
Do Low-Income Noncustodial Fathers Trade Families? Economic Contributions to Children in Multiple Families
Little research exists on the contributions that noncustodial fathers make to children they have had in different families. We use baseline survey data from an intervention for noncustodial parents who are behind in their child support payments to examine formal and informal payments. We explore whether noncustodial fathers who have had children with multiple mothers provide any support to children from older relationships, and whether they provi…
The Role of Neighborhood Disadvantage and Family Structure During Adolescence in Young Adults' Experiences of Multiple Partner Fertility (MPF)
Families in the United States have become more complex, with an increasing number of individuals having children with multiple partners, called multiple partner fertility (MPF). MPF has significant negative consequences for the well-being of adults and children. Understanding the correlates of MPF, particularly how familial and community constructs affect the fertility outcomes of youth, has important implications for prevention and intervention.…
