10% of US families are single parent families. What a tragedy.

Only 10%? I thought it would be more than that...

This. I highly doubt the number is only 10%, cite source please?

edit: Hmm, wikipedia says around 10%, that's rather impressive! Australia is at 14% =(

Socially, how so?

Because you only have half the attention, supervision, assistance, etc that a normal family has

Hardly. In a two parent family, the parents will also be paying attention to each other, as well as themselves and the children.
My mom pays attention just to herself and I. Irrelevent any ways, I was raised more by my brother until sixth grade.
