The same country founded on Christianity and yet we cant seem to keep marriages together...Hmm.
single parenthood for the most part though is unvoluntary. some cases either a father/mother dies, divorce resulting in custody issues, is incarcerated(sp?), or just doesn't care at all about the child. i know of little cases where someone outright says before ever being pregnant that the father doesn't have to be a part of the situation, that they just want a child. most cases where i hear this is when someone already has a person in mind that they would love/like to spend the rest of their life with, not just a 'donor' as it were.

There are many cases where fatherless children grow up to be successful, and there are also times where fatherless children grow up to be heathens. FORTUNATELY, i have beaten the odds and have been semisuccessful, and have not been a menace to society, as it were. I'm not looking at you as cold hearted, just stating my opinions, that waiting would be the best option.
