My Mom was raised by her father and his family in Chicago.
She is married with three kids and work as a nurse.
Irony my mom's cousins who more money and two parents turned.
One of my friends was raised by a single parent because her dad walk out on them .But now on dean list at an university.
I do not think wedlock births are bad thing.
The big problems are people are not taking of care their kids when they can and birth control is poorly educated in this country.

Having a baby out of wedlock is a mixed bag. Firstly, a decision is made to have the baby versus abortion (fantastic)! Secondly , most of we humans ,whether christian or secular generally avoid judging ,but wait! GOD not we observers has a marriage covenant and within that covenant is child birth (the "plan") a plan that we disregard, mock, perhaps don't get, care about, dont believe or are just stupid. I personally forgive a woman regardless of outcomes . As for God without repentance it's very uncomfortable thinking of His judgment the only one that counts.

The same thing we do in all other cases where baby is too little to speak for himself. That would be to assume more care, rather than less.

If anyone can be bothered.

I can't see how parents not being married care means less care for the baby but anyway.

More care BEFORE there is a baby.

As in birth control.

Still, once the baby is here, as long as the parents are willing, I can't see why they wouldn't take good care of the child.

That's a big "if."

Most women who have children out of wedlock are poor and uneducated

I don't have an issue with children being born out of wedlock as long those particular circumstances don't prevent them from being financially supported appropriately. But let's be honest...MANY children born aren't being financially supported appropriately, whether the parents are married or not. Don't assume that all children in two-parent homes are in stable homes of sufficient income. Are kids born to single parents of an increased likelihood to experience insufficient financial support? I don't have reliable stats on that, but it would not surprise me. But if a child whose parents are unmarried can still count on being well-taken care of, I don't personally see the issue. Nobody, married or unmarried, should be having (or fathering) kids they don't plan to or don't have the wherewithal to take care of, anyway. But, obviously, it happens.
