Previous research has documented that children who do not live with both biological parents fare somewhat worse on a variety of outcomes than those who do. In this article, which is the introduction to the Special Issue on ''Family dynamics and children's well-being and life chances in Europe,'' we refine this picture by identifying variation in this conclusion depending on the family transitions and subpopulations studied. We start by discussing the general evidence accumulated for parental separation and ask whether the same picture emerges from research on other family transitions and structures. Subsequently, we review studies that have aimed to deal with endogeneity and discuss whether issues of causality challenge the general picture of family transitions lowering child well-being. Finally, we discuss whether previous evidence finds effects of family transitions on child outcomes to differ between children from different socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds, and across countries and time-periods studied. Each of the subsequent articles in this Special Issue contributes to these issues. Population (2017) 33:163-184 DOI 10.1007 evidence on how several less often studied family forms relate to child outcomes in the European context. Two other articles in this Special Issue contribute by resolving several key questions in research on variation in the consequences of parental separation by socioeconomic and immigrant background, two areas of research that have produced conflicting results so far.Eur J

“…Similar to the U.S., divorce in Europe has increased since the 1960s, levelling off since the 1980s (EUROSTAT, 2018). Several fundamental predictors of divorce (age, age at first marriage, presence of children, gender, income, and education) point in the same direction across the European continent, but the effect sizes vary within regions or specific nations (Härkönen, 2015). For instance, in a meta-analysis of studies predicting divorce risk across Europe, Wagner and Weiß (2006) find that even a well-established predictor of divorce—the presence of children—ranges in effect size from a 25% decline in the risk of divorce in Germany to a 70% decline in the Netherlands.…”

In the U.S., evidence has emerged suggesting that divorce is lower among those with many versus few siblings, a pattern that may indicate that children develop important social skills via their childhood interactions with siblings. However, this pattern has yet to be tested in other countries with varying fertility and divorce rates. We extend the empirical basis of the sibship size/divorce literature by exploring the association in China and Europe, each with unique demographic characteristics. Each additional sibling is associated with an 11 percent decline in the probability of divorce in China and a two percent decline in Europe, net a wide range of covariates. We also test whether these patterns vary across cohorts and alternative coding schemes. The results have implications for our understanding of how growing up with siblings influences later life outcomes and the contextual features that form that relationship.

“…Likewise, even the Dayak Tamambaloh Catholic Church views divorce as a very unwelcome situation and an immoral act. Divorce can be defined as an event to break or leave, and the end of the marriage bond (Härkönen, 2015). Divorce undermines commitment to marriage as a context for sexual relations and childbearing (Su, 2017).…”

This study has been motivated by the phenomenon of married life facing various challenges of the times. Therefore, this study has taken the topic of the importance of morals in married life, especially in realizing a harmonious and lasting family life. By focusing on Dayak Tamambaloh in Santo Martinus Parish, Sintang Diocese. This study aims to explore the values of marriage customs in light of the moral teachings of the Catholic Church. Dayak Tamambaloh views marriage as a lifelong union of a man and a woman that lasts a lifetime. This Tamambaloh Dayak marriage custom is manifested in the prohibition of adultery, the ideal form of marriage that is heterosexual and has children, and the ban on divorce. The marriage custom of the Dayak Tamambaloh is in line with the nature of marriage in the Catholic Church, which is monogamous and indivisible. This phenomenon has shown the Tamambaloh Dayak as an ethnic group that can adapt their lives to the morality and spirituality of the Catholic Church. Likewise, the Catholic Church has demonstrated a high appreciation for the noble values of the Tamambaloh Dayak culture.
