This paper is divided into four sections. I begin with a basic discussion of the trends in cohabitation as a family living arrangement for children. Next I discuss why cohabitation may influence child outcomes. Then I review findings from empirical research that specifically focuses on the effect of cohabitation on children's social and economic well-being. Finally, I present limitations and challenges for future work on the effects of cohabitation on children. |
