Anomie

Anomie With single parenting not the taboo it once was thought of in the United States, the number of children growing up in a single parent household is rising. This group includes many categories of families which is another contribution to its increasing number. This group includes children who have lost a parent to death, or divorce, adopted by a single male or female, and born out of wedlock, just to name a few. Again these groups have increased because it is becoming more and more acceptable for them to exist. In fact Single parents account for 27.3% of family households with children under 181. Also 1 in 2 children will live in a single parent family at some point in childhood2.
