Notes: The Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study is following a birth cohort of nearly 5,000 children, including 3,712 children born to unmarried parents and 1,186 children born to married parents. The data are nationally representative of births in cities with populations of 200,000 or more. For more information about the study, visit the Web site of The Center for Research on Child Wellbeing, http://crcw.princeton.edu/fragilefamilies or email the CRCW at crcw@opr.princeton.edu This research brief was adapted from "Explaining Racial and Ethnic Differences in Marriage among New, Unwed Parents," by Kristen Harknett and Sara McLanahan.
