Single Parent Families and Cohabitation

In class on Friday we were talking about how a single mother looking for a new partner is effected by her children when looking for someone. I was doing some research on the subject and found a very good encyclopedia article Larry Bumpass of the University of Wisconsin- Madison and R. Kelly Raley of the University of North Carolina that speaks about this situation and discusses cohabitation for people in these situations. Although this article only focuses on single mothers, it is a very good article and was very informative.

The link to the article is http://www.jstor.org/stable/2061899?seq=1 if anyone is interested in seeing it.
