摘要:The aim of this paper is to investigate whether parental alcohol consumption leads to a reduction of child welfare.To this end, we analyse whether alcohol consumption decreases parents’ time spent looking after children and working.Using the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey, we estimate a model of intra-household allocation of time for mono-nuclear families with children under fifteen years of age.We find that fathers’ alcohol consumption has a negative impact on their weekly hours spent doing child care, while no significant effect is observed for mothers’ alcohol consumption.
