  • [quote]1) Graduate high school 2) Get a job 3) Don't have kids until you're married[/quote] Interestingly enough, all of these things are interrelated. Children who grow up in single-parent (predominately single-mothers - fueled by births out of wedlock) households are more likely to graduate high school (and complete more school, on average). Then, as we know, the lack of a diploma is linked to higher crime, poverty, and unemployment rates.

  • Are you sure? Re-read it. It doesn't seem to match what you linked at all.

  • Yeah I just checked the link. Family structure is related to academic achievement. I could go dig up my "low academic achievement relates to poverty" link, if you want.

    So, just to be 100% clear, you believe that children who grow up with single parents are [i]more[/i] likely to complete high school than their peers from intact families? Are you [i]sure[/i] you re-read your post?
