That's an increase from 28 percent in 1990."
Very efficient! It used to take a village ...
Sunday: if I had to, I would go the single mother path over not having children at all. But that's me.
AH: you and Lizyank will be disgusted as true natives born in diff. times, but I spent a lovely Sunday morning running in a race, and then watching my kids run in the kids' races in the park.
I find it to be a very troubling statistic. It can't be good for this country and society as a whole if this trend continues.
