Digest. According to data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, men who father children outside of marriage are more likely to be at a social disadvantage, will attain less education and earn less money, and be out of work more often. Subsequent marriage does not totally counterbalance the effects of premarital fatherhood. COPYRIGHT 1998 Alan Guttmacher Institute
