Milardo in Article on Increase of Single Mothers

Robert Milardo, professor of family relations at the University of Maine, was interviewed for a Lewiston Sun Journal story about a nationwide trend in the rising numbers of unmarried mothers and decline of married mothers. Milardo estimated some 50 percent of unmarried mothers are living with a partner and some will become single mothers if those relationships end. The story also appeared in other newspapers, including the Bangor Daily News.
