Summary
Family structures are shifting fast—24% of 15-year-olds now live in households where parents aren’t together, up from 13% two decades ago. In the Netherlands, nearly 800,000 kids (out of 3.3 million) are raised by separated parents, mostly with moms—93% of 4-year-olds, dropping to 83% by age 17. Same-sex parenting is on the rise too: over 12,000 kids now have two moms (up from just 1,000 in 1995), while two-dad households remain rare at just 500. And marriage? It’s no longer the norm—only 54.7% of 15-year-olds with two legal parents live with married ones, a dramatic drop from 30 years ago.
