How many single parent households need external aid to have children?

how many IVF families require external aid to have children?


Single parent families don't need help to have children, but the statistics indicate why it is a benefit to have a stable two-parent/married household to raise children. Even then, people don't seem to have problems with unbiased studies being performed on children of single parent households.

IVF families do require external aid, and the main reason why heterosexual couples require IVF is due to waiting far too long to have children. At the same time, I don't think anyone would be all that offended if someone ran unbiased studies to compare the results of children raised in households were the parents were older.
