Political Factoid

"Children born outside marriage
face elevated risks of falling
into poverty, failing in school or
suffering emotional and
behavioral problems."
  --  typical of misleading statements
 
In reality, most children face such risks,
especially
  • When the marriage fails
    (which is 50% of the time)
     
  • Where one of marriage partners is abusive
     
  • Where both spouses must work long hours
    at minimum wage (or less)
