This article is wrong in so many ways. I definitely shook my head at this quote:

“It is the privileged Americans who are marrying, and marrying helps them stay privileged,” said Andrew Cherlin, a sociologist at Johns Hopkins University.

Talk about making stuff up just to fit a pathetic agenda. Also, personal choices in who these single moms marry (or have kids with) comes into play; whether the 'I do's stick or not, responsible guys pay to support their children; losers don't.

A woman who works her butt off at a daycare center to help her husband support their family is not “privileged” in any way except for having more common sense in her great toe than her shack-up friend has in her whole body.

The statement is correct. Marriage builds wealth and divorce destroys it. Documented many times over.

And responsible women don’t have children until they are married to a responsible and honorable man.
