Michael Marshall, Editor Emeritus of UPI explains how progressives routinely ignore the numerous benefits for child welfare of marriage between a man and a woman. Instead, they focus on whatever makes the two partners of whatever type happy.
Children are the losers in this new paradigm.

#115-Neighborhood Economics
Should big government handle the social welfare “safety net”, or should neighbors work together to handle the welfare of all of those in their neighborhood themselves?
The key to solving today’s problems is to find God. Only a comprehensive understanding of God’s Will and Providence can illuminate the solution to the crisis we are facing today.
Rev. Sun Myung Moon, July 26, 1994

There is only one way to break the generational cycle of out of wedlock birth.
We must teach youth the benefits of sexual abstinence before marriage.
This will help them to achieve success and happiness.
Jamal Johnson taught abstinence-centered sex education in public schools for eleven years.
Here he makes a compelling presentation on how having sex outside of marriage leads to higher rates of divorce. In turn, higher rates of divorce lead to more single parents. More single parents mean more poverty and worse outcomes for children.
