National Survey of Families and Households data revealed that parent gender did not account for family structure variations in parental socialization among parents (n=3,738) of adolescents. Single parents reported less restrictive rules than did married parents, whereas stepparents and cohabiting males reported significantly less frequent activities with and positive responses to children than did original parents.
