Description

This Routledge academic study examines the lived experiences of lone parents across Europe and their health outcomes. Between 1996 and 2012, lone-parent families rose from 14% to 19% of European households, with particularly sharp increases in Denmark and Ireland, while only Greece and Finland saw declining rates. The UK alone has 2.9 million lone parents with dependent children, with nine out of ten being women. Lone parents face documented challenges across social, financial, and health dimensions that significantly impact their well-being. This book investigates how family structure, fertility patterns, and parental circumstances shape health trajectories and quality of life for single parents navigating modern European society. Essential reading for researchers, policymakers, and professionals working in sociology, public health, family studies, and social welfare.

Key Features

Analyses European lone-parent family trends from 1996 to 2012, documenting the rise from 14% to 19% across the continent with country-specific data.

Examines the intersection of fertility, health, and lone parenting within contemporary European social and economic contexts.

Published by Routledge as part of the Studies in the Sociology of Health and Illness series for academic credibility.

Addresses documented social, financial, and health challenges experienced by the 2.9 million lone parents with dependent children in the UK.

Provides evidence-based insights for researchers, policymakers, and health professionals working with vulnerable family structures.
