The social cost of single parenthood

Article Abstract:

The 1994 summer issue of the American Prospect contained a report on children of single mothers. The article indicates that children of one-parent families are more likely to have social and educational difficulties than children who grow up with both parents. These results undermine the positive notions on nontraditional family.

Article Abstract:

The latest Sexual Revolution calls for the legalization of cohabitation among gay couples. Although Canada seems bent on writing sexual orientation into the Human Rights Act, giving premarital, non-childbearing relationships legality can threaten the institutions of marriage and the family.

Just call me mister

Article Abstract:

The etiquette of addressing persons mister, miss or misses has been replaced by the practice of calling them by their first names. The first-name calling practice is hypocritical and demeaning since people of stature continue to be called by mister, miss or misses.
