[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While social data is interesting, it’s not the most important thing to me. In my own experience, I find parenthood within the context of marriage to be the most meaningful aspect of my life. I agree with the point another poster made that when young people don’t value having children, they are less likely to value marriage. [/quote] It's safe to say you didn't read the article...or even much of this thread. Many women are specifically choosing to have children without a spouse because they can't find a spouse that is able to pull their weight either in terms of making an income or sharing the parental responsibilities, or often times both. This really isn't about wanting kids or not.[/quote] In a recent pew study, most single women without kids currently reported they either don’t want kids or aren’t sure they want kids. Only 45 percent said they want them.[/quote]
