Legal and Social Ties between Children and Cohabiting Fathers.
Ottosen, Mai Heide
Childhood: A Global Journal of Child Research, v8 n1 p75-94 Feb 2001
Examined whether legal ties between members in the nuclear family affect the father-child relationship after domestic breakup. Found no evidence that civil status could explain differences in the post-separation organization of parenting, but a sole legal custody arrangement from the child's birth may disfavor cohabiting fathers as future residential parents.
