ALCALDE-CAMPOS, Rosalina e PAVEZ, Iskra. Childhood, Sole-Parent Families and Latin-American Immigration in Barcelona, Spain. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2013, vol.11, n.1, pp.229-243. ISSN 1692-715X.
The relationship between poverty and sole parenthood is a fact found in many studies. The living conditions of children who live in sole-parent immigrant families and their social vulnerability in Spain has been less explored. In this paper we present the results of qualitative research carried out in Spain during the years 2008 and 2009 with 18 sole-parent families headed by Latin American women migrants. We describe the high risk of poverty and exclusion that these children suffer and the educational and social effects derived from their living conditions in Spain.
