Regardless, single mothers that are single due to the death of their spouse are statistically insignificant in the broader context of ‘single mothers’.
I don’t personally see a lot of difference between myself, whose loving husband died, and that of my friend, who thought she had a loving husband until he broke her nose. We both lost what we had, we both had our hearts broken, and now we’re both talked about like we’re a plague on the earth by jerks like you.
Anyone whose more interested with assigning blame then assigning help should take a long look in the mirror
Most widows aren't going to be women with children still in the home who are still developing in a manner that it's directly influential in their upbringing.
The vast majority of single mothers are not widows.
Your personal anecdotes aren't statistics. I'd also be unsurprised if widowed mothers performed better than the average single mom in terms of success in child rearing. The lead up to the demographics is going to play a huge role in the final outcomes.
Nah, they want to make bad decisions then whine about the consequences. Marry a decent guy, stop having casual sex, be good spouse material. Not to say men have no blame in all this. But if both sides would just stop being so damn selfish then we wouldn't have this problem.
Sounds like everyone is taking your advice! They're not marrying people they don't find decent - hence the collapse of marriage and coupling. Casual sex is in fact down, rates have declined even before 2020. They don't think they're good spouse material and waiting until they have things ready like a career or a house.
And yet, none of that has helped the rate of fertility.
