Pergancy outside of Marriage

An article in the New York times called "For Women Under 30, Most Births Occur Outside Marriage" talks about unmarried women having children. Also younger women that have children are illegitimacy. Furthermore Lisa Mercado is an unmarried women with a 6 year-old daughter that hardly spends with her child because of working two jobs.The father barely even lends a hand cause of dealing with other children of his own. The reasons that the article gives for as to why people are marrying less before having children are diverse of globalization and birth control pills. I do, but then I don't agree with these reasons because globalization is always the problem and birth control doesn't always 100% works for every women. I honestly think that people are having children because they want to be with someone, but the boyfriend or SOUL MATE doesn't want to commit to the relationship or take care of the baby. My parents aren't married because my mom and dad never decided to get married. I honestly think that my dad and mom being married won't make a difference whether they're married or not because the way I was raised will always be the same no matter what happens.I don't expect to get married in the future meaning as though I want to really focus on school then worry about kids.I don't expect to raise a family of my own, but to have a boyfriend that's really going to commit the relationship before kids.
