I guess it seems like this idea is better than nothing.

I tend to agree with this concept...
The other issue is are unplanned pregnancies and resultant births to single women truly ascribe to not being wanted nor desired?
Because I know plenty of women that got themselves "caught up" in the drama for your momma and the baby daddy, that realize if they used more logic in their reproductive choice, or even realize they had one, then this issue would become irrelevant...
While there had been a reduction in births to unwed teens, the number is still higher in African American teens. However, the number pales in comparasion to African American adults...
So, I guess my question that I need help in understanding is do African Americans have ANY concept of the 2-parent (mother and father) nuclear family with planned pregnancies and children?
