Tiivistelmä
In this state-of-the-art report, we review literature on the effects of family forms
and dynamics on children’s well-being, as the first piece of work for Work Package 5 on the same theme. We focus on European studies, and cover five themes, namely the effects of various family forms (and separation and step-parenthood in particular) on children’s life chances, whether the effects are causal, the role of parenting and social relationships, heterogeneity of the effects, and variation in the effects over time and across countries.
