Zusammenfassung: | What problems do teenage parents encounter? Are single-parent families subject to the same pressures as more traditional nuclear families? Are there effective methods of treatment for widowers, recently divorced individuals, or adopted children Variant Family Forms examines specific issues and problems brought up by families living non-traditional or alternative lifestyles. Various alternative lifestyles are covered, including: adolescent parents, gay/lesbian families, step-parents, families with adopted children, widows and widowers, remarried parents, and those who co-habit. In addition, contributors outline modes of treatment for each alternative lifestyle presented along with suggestions for future research. The volume concludes by examining what policies have been -- or need to be -- enacted in relation to the growing population with alternative family living conditions |
