Marriage and long term relationship rates have alao been plummeting along side every other "milestone" indicator. Obviously women have a much easier time becoming a single parent than men do, but single parents exist.

I'm aware they exist, but the way it was phrased made it sound like that's the plan all along.

That’s my plan, well I’m looking at permanent care, but same goal.

Why are long-term relationship rates decreasing? Is this another effect of mentally ill Gen Z coming into adulthood?"

EDIT: It seems this comment is triggering people. Instead of getting mad, why don't you do some reading and educate yourself? Gen Z's struggles are obvious and well documented. Pretending they don't exist is the complete opposite of what you should be doing.

It's more of an effect of retarded boomer consequences they're not willing to take responsibility for. I mean just look at the U.S as a whole and what damage those mentally disabled religious people have done over the last couple of years. Religious people should be locked up in asylums and have their children taken from them before they do more harm.

You'll need to be more specific. How do you think religion in the US is affecting the long-term relationships of young people?

I mean, for every female single parent there is a male single parent so your logic does not follow

I'm a single guy. I have to go through an adoption process if i wanted to become a parent this year. That's a lengthy process with background checks, home inspections,and placement surveys that are taxing, exhausting, and dehumanizing.

My sister is a single woman, she just needs to find a guy to sperm her up. They guy doesn't even have to know that he impregnated her. Finding unknown fathers is a notoriously difficult task, even with modern genetic testing.
