Abstract Created by REACH
Single mothers and their children were followed over the first five years of the child's life to examine the relationships among nonresidential fathers' financial and informal instrumental support, mothers' parenting and parenting stress, and their children's behavioral and cognitive development over time. Nonresidential fathers' financial support was directly associated with children's cognitive development.
