Interesting article....then we get down to, it takes a village.
This article pointed out the problems in extended family vs nuclear vs single quite well I thought, also the benefits and strengths in those family structures.
What the writer does not point out in a significant way is honor, commitment, and the ability to make good decisions in a partner you will have children with. It should be head and heart.
Two parent families are critical for children and so are mature, healthy, honorable and committed adults as their parents. Many of us have made mistakes in these areas, but.looking back we know the cost was/is high for those mistakes.
God help us to be better in all things and to see things as You see them.
