The Telegraph (UK) (12/27, Donnelly) reported that “a major study” conducted by University College London researchers suggests that youngsters “brought up by single parents and in step families are three times as likely to suffer from mental health problems.” The study, which included some “10,000 children, found that those brought up by both natural parents are far less likely to suffer severe emotional and behavioural problems.”
