Rise in single father households cited in 2000 census
Washington AP reports a surge in father headed homes with children. The 2000 census counts 2.2 million households led by single fathers, about 1 in 45, up 62 percent in a decade, with dramatic gains in Nevada 126 percent and Delaware 74 percent. Experts attribute trends to custody rulings and jobs trends, while psychologists note ongoing stigma and financial strain for custodial dads.
