Reagan task force
urges incentives
for child-rearing
WASHINGTON (AP) — A Rea
gan administration study group,
charging that the “fabric of family
life has been frayed by the abrasive
experiments of two liberal decades,”
on Thursday called for tax breaks
and government policies to encour
age child rearing^
The report, entitled “The Family:
Preserving America’s Future,” said,
“Intact families are good. Families
who choose to have children are
making a desirable decision.
“Mothers and fathers who then
decide to spend a good deal of time
raising those children themselves
rather than leaving it to others are
demonstrably doing a good thing for
those children.”
Education Undersecretary Gary
Bauer, who headed the 22-member
task f orce, denied that the report im
plied any criticism of couples who
decided not to have children or who
put their youngsters in day care.
“All this report does is praise fam
ilies who decide to have children,”
Bauer said.
But he said child rearing should
be encouraged to reverse population
trends that eventually will result in a
shortage of young people.
Accusing courts, schools and gov
ernment programs of undermining
family programs, the report recom
mended that welfare benefits be
given to teen-age mothers only if
they live at home with their parents.
“Government should not provide
incentives — or make things easier
-— for teen-agers tempted to prom
iscuity,” the report said.
While acknowledging that there
was no statistical evidence to support
the view that welfare encourages
teen-age motherhood, the report
said single mothers under age 21
should not be allowed to collect ben
efits under the Aid to Families with
Dependent Children (AFDC) pro
gram or live in subsidized housing
unless they reside with their parents.
53% of lone mothers
get no child support
WASHING.TON (AP) — More
than half the mothers raising chil
dren on their own do so without fi
nancial help from the fathers, a new
Census Bureau report says.
Of the nearly 8.7 million divorced
and separated American women
raising children, 53 percent were re
ceiving no help from the fathers,
according to the study, “Child Sup
port and Alimony: 1983.”
Some 3.7 million had not been
awarded child support, and another
958,000 were unable to collect their
award, according to the study.
Of the women without a court
award, about one-fourth said they
didn’t want the help.
Most women said they didn’t re
ceive awards because they couldn’t
establish paternity or find fathers.
Of the 958,000 women unable to
collect their payments, the largest
share, 51.5 percent, said the child’s
father simply had refused to pay.
Of the women who were awarded
payments, 70 percent were able to
collect at least part of their awards,
an improvement over 1981, the last
time figures were compiled. In that
year, 72 percent collected at least
part of the money.
The federal government has
launched efforts in the last few years
to help mothers collect the support
they are due, including a 1984 law
aimed at getting states to use such
techniques as wage withholding
from fathers who fall behind.
