Has child support and parenting payments ever been factored into the gap calculation.
If the major factor is time off for mothers to raise children, and those mothers are in long term relationships/married, then at a combined income level there really is no gap.
That doesn't help single mothers, but child support augmenting their income (whilst reducing fathers), as well as single parent benefits would offset that, would be interesting to know to what degree.
I know the above is full of generalisations.
