Why is it that we as Americans will look down on young people that have children prior to marriage, and disparage them with the term "Single parent".
If we look closer at the reality of factual history, over 50% of marriages end in divorce. Aren't the children of such same situations living in a "Single parent household"? Continuing, if someone is a widow or widower, with children, they too are single parents. Lastly, if you adopt a child and are unmarried, or even estranged from your spouse, that again is a single parent situation.
The fact older single parent situations far out number younger single parent situation, so why do we as a society look down on our younger adults?
