Description

In Mothers in Poverty: A Study of Fatherless Families, Professor Kriesberg examines common myths surrounding poverty, welfare dependency, and single-parent households. This academic study provides evidence-based insights that challenge long-held assumptions about social structures and economic hardship. Through detailed research, the book addresses whether welfare dependency persists through generations and investigates the lives of husbandless mothers. Kriesberg looks at the realities of public housing and public assistance to see if they are chosen out of preference or necessity. The text also examines the educational goals of children in different family structures, comparing the aspirations of children from single-parent homes to those from married households. Starting with major theoretical issues, Professor Kriesberg develops specific hypotheses to test the validity of social stereotypes. This book is an essential resource for those studying sociology, family dynamics, and the economic realities of modern life. It provides a clear, research-driven look at the complex lives of families navigating poverty and social systems.
