    “I would love to have a child, but I don’t think I could do it as one person with the costs of childcare and everything … "

    Um, did someone forget to factor the co-parent in, or is voluntary single parenting en vogue?

      Marriage and long term relationship rates have alao been plummeting along side every other “milestone” indicator. Obviously women have a much easier time becoming a single parent than men do, but single parents exist.

        I’m aware they exist, but the way it was phrased made it sound like that’s the plan all along.

        Why are long-term relationship rates decreasing? Is this another effect of mentally ill Gen Z coming into adulthood?"

        EDIT: It seems this comment is triggering people. Instead of getting mad, why don’t you do some reading and educate yourself? Gen Z’s struggles are obvious and well documented. Pretending they don’t exist is the complete opposite of what you should be doing.

        I mean, for every female single parent there is a male single parent so your logic does not follow

          I’m a single guy. I have to go through an adoption process if i wanted to become a parent this year. That’s a lengthy process with background checks, home inspections,and placement surveys that are taxing, exhausting, and dehumanizing.

          My sister is a single woman, she just needs to find a guy to sperm her up. They guy doesn’t even have to know that he impregnated her. Finding unknown fathers is a notoriously difficult task, even with modern genetic testing.
