This lack of motivation, however, though sounds simple, goes much deeper than just having a little will for school, rather it is not even getting the opportunity to even have that motivation. These…

An intact home, by definition is a two-parent, traditional structure (Mullens, 2004). Any divergence from this, whether it be death, divorce, unwed pregnancy, or from a donor where there are not two parents involved would be considered a broken home (Kersha-Aerga & White-Lewis, 2013).
