Does mother know best? Parental discrepancies in assessing child behavioral and educational outcomes

Abstract: We investigate the degree of correspondence between parents' reports on child behavioral and educational outcomes using wave four of a rich Danish longitudinal survey of children (the DALSC). All outcomes are measured at age 11 when the children are expected to be in fifth grade. Once discrepancies are detected, we analyze whether they are driven by noisy evaluations or by systematic bias, focusing on the role of parental characteristics and response heterogeneity. We then explicitly assess the relative import… Show more

“…In the early 1970’s, a new law was established in Michigan to protect the best interest of the child and grant minor children the rights of a relationship with both parents during a custody dispute. Thus, the “tender years presumption,” which assumed that the mother knows best, was replaced by the “best interest of the child” presumption, which is based on the idea that the best parent is “both parents” [ 1 ]. This law has led to custodial arrangements that benefit the child by ensuring the receipt of emotional (love, affection, and so on) and basic life needs (food, clothing, medical care, and so on) from both parents.…”
