How is Divorce Affecting Black Children?
Sign #6 – A marriage gap exists with African-Americans, which damages educational and financial prospects for black children.
According to the healthymarriageinfo.org, African-Americans are more likely than any other ethnic group to raise children in female-headed households. A single-income household is not as financially flush as a two-income household and therefore children in single-parent homes have reduced access to abundant financial and educational resources.
