The researcher seeks through an overview of the literature and her own research to examine and arrive at a broader understanding of the one-parent family in an as yet predominantly two-parent society. The overview of literature will also be used as a base for comparison with the findings from the writer's own research. The study is exploratory and descriptive and is a case study of 70 lone-parents who are members of two single-parent organizations in a South African city. A purpose of the study is to examine how these lone-parents fulfil some of their parental roles and to determine which factors arising out of the state of lone-parenthood, or associated with it, affect their roles as parents, their children, and themselves as persons. From the research of lone-parenthood, the writer will draw attention to some of the social implications, make some recommendations for community action and will postulate some hypotheses. 2015-02-24T04:11:29Z 2015-02-24T04:11:29Z 1980 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12532 eng application/pdf Department of Social Development Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
