My survey shows that the majority of freshman at Decatur High School live with two parents . This says that more students have a greater chance of doing better in school as well as sports because of the stronger support system they have. Children in single parent homes don't have as much help around the house. They depend on one parent. Kids that chose "other" may live with grandparents or another relative. They may not depend on they're parents as much for support and help.
From my source I found out that in 1990 there were 7 million single parents living with children under 18. The number has grown greatly since then. The majority of single parent homes are run by women. Single parent households headed by men have significantly higher incomes than those headed by women. Single men and woman with children have to do it all: run their household, work, plan meals, discipline children, help with homework, and be there when the children get sick or hurt. Still, many children raised in single parent homes grow up to lead more normal lives.
