This paper examines the importance of parental separation, relative to other factors, in explaining the distribution of educational outcomes. Using a sample of men and women from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youths, I find that parental separation retains its significant negative effects in the presence of an expanded set of regressors but it ranks well behind other factors in the proportion of the variation in schooling outcomes explained.
