I guess they don't believe that the parents really need to be committed to eachother?? Is marriage obsolete to some? I just cannot fathom wanting to bring a baby into the world under those circumstances on purpose.
Well see, I was raised to believe in marriage. But who am I to enforce my set of rules and values onto others (and trust me, upbringing is more conservative than the average)? I have met quite a few people who dont have much faith in the institution of marriage. But you know, it's not my life, my family, my kids, so at the end of the day..who cares?

Also, marriage is not the end all and be all. Lots of people nowadays grow up in single-parent homes, and still manage to get ahead in life (or pursue the things that have meaning to them).
