Variations in the Length of Male Parenting: Evidence from the 1995 GSS Canada

In this paper we concentrate on measuring the quantity or the total amount of time lived by men with their children over their life course and leave out the quality or the types and intensity of day-to-day involvement in child-rearing.... Using a life course approach and data gathered through [Canadas] General Social Survey of Families in 1995 we examine the timing of the start and end of parenting and their variations with mens socio-economic characteristics. This paper was originally presented at the 1998 Annual Meeting of the Population Association of America. (EXCERPT)
