What can we do, if big numbers of young people, just aren’t interested in marriage and family?

I’ve heard there used to be more “social pressure”, if that’s the right term, for young people to find somebody and get married. Young women were said to go to college and get their “MRS” degree. This happened before my time, but I’ve heard our culture was very different decades ago. Young people were encouraged to get married. Young people wanted to get married.

Nowadays, there seems no social stigma or sanction against not being married and having children.

I know some people, friends of the family, a number of families with adult children in their 20s and 30s. The vast majority of those adult children are not married. Few of them have children, so the next generation of those families will be smaller than the previous generations.

Young people were encouraged to get married.

Now young people are encouraged to:

1) Copulate indiscriminately, and abort the result.
2) Engage in sodomitic acts with persons of the same sex.
3) Mutilate themselves.
