[edit] Claims re single parents

The article currently claims (both in the lead and in the first section): "Today, most American children will spend part of their childhood in a single-parent household." However, the footnote provided doesn't actually provide any evidence for that statement -- it includes it (almost word for word), but offers no statistical data to back it up. As such, I'm tempted to remove it, but given that this is a fairly well-referenced article, thought I'd seek further comment. Gusworld 01:55, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
