LabelCMI:49 C46 Ever been lone parent for one month or more
Question text Now I want to ask you about lone parenthood. That is having to bring up a child on your own because a relationship with a spouse or partner has broken down or ended, or because you never had a partner. Has there ever been a continuous period of one month or more when you have been a lone parent?
