Abstract

This thesis contributes to the economics debate on human capital development. It focuses on the role of the family and investigates the consequences and determinants of parental inputs on child development. It consists of three chapters, of which the first two delve into the consequences of parental inputs in early childhood, whereas the third explores the determinants. Parental inputs broadly indicate the family environment influencing child development and refer specifically to the choice of family structure - parental divorce in Chapter 1 and parental cohabitation in Chapter 3 - and parental investments and parental skills in Chapter 2.
