Hamlin, Daniel; Cheng, Albert – Journal of School Choice, 2022
A longstanding critique of homeschooling is that it isolates children from mainstream society, depriving them of social experiences needed to thrive as adults.

Tsai, Ming-Chang; Dzorgbo, Dan-Bright S. – Journal of Marriage and Family, 2012

Fremstad, Shawn; Boteach, Melissa – Center for American Progress, 2015
Stable, healthy marriages and relationships can bolster the economic security and well-being of adults and children. However, reality is much more complex. Relatively few children currently live in families with married parents in which only the father is employed. In fact, more than half of U.S. children today will spend at least part of their…

Wagmiller, Robert L., Jr.; Lennon, Mary Clare; Kuang, Li – Journal of Health and Social Behavior, 2008
The life course perspective emphasizes that past economic experiences and stage in the life course influence a family's ability to cope with negative life events such as poor health. However, traditional analytic approaches are not well-suited to examine how the impact of negative life events differs based on a family's past economic experiences,…

Hinks, Timothy; Gruen, Carola – Social Indicators Research, 2007
The issue of what determines subjective well-being has been at the centre of a recent flurry of research in the economics field. A necessary part of this understanding is the role relative positions (economic, social, geographic) of economic agents, particularly individuals, play in life (commonly referred to in the literature as rivalry). In this…

Sandfort, Jodi R.; Hill, Martha S. – Journal of Marriage and the Family, 1996
Considers how different types of economic support, received soon after the birth of a first child, contribute to the later self-sufficiency of young, unmarried mothers. Findings suggest that certain economic supports assist these mothers and that life choices they make after their child's birth are important to self-sufficiency. (RJM)
