Death of the traditional family

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/

More people are living alone, more children are being raised by single parents and more grown-up children are living with their parents than ever before, according to the Office for National Statistics.

One expert said that the in-depth annual study was final confirmation that the nuclear family had become “a museum piece”.

The Social Trends report made clear, however, that the most radical changes had been to child-rearing and marriage.

Its figures showed that 30 per cent of women under 30 had given birth by the age of 25, while 24 per cent had married: the first time that having children had become the first major milestone of adult life, ahead of marriage. This was in sharp contrast to their parents’ generation. In 1971 three-quarters of women were married by 25, and half had given birth. The statistics also showed that:

"Ecoscience" discusses measures taken in various countries, but it also does indeed make many recommendations and suggestions, weighing and judging the merits of various policies like the ones identified in this post and in the post from last night (forced abortion/marriage for single mothers, compulsory sterilization, etc). Recommendations abound within the text, both positive and negative. (For example, the authors, on grounds of practicality, recommend against putting sterilizing agents in drinking water -- but they do take the idea seriously). This statement quoted above is just one example of many: "Such a pronatalist bias of course is no longer appropriate." There is no other way to read that except as a policy recommendation.

Scary. Very scary. A [mainly] corrupt cabinet including; the new Surgeon General who has ties with an 'interesting' organization, 'Turbo Tax Cheat' Timmy, eugenicist Holdren- a perfect compliment to late-term abortion fan Sebillius- which compliments the partial-birth 'leave 'em to die' resident of 1600 PA Ave, anti-nuke, sensible utilization of US resources Chu. The list goes on, and on, and on... The lesson is that all US citizens need to pay attention at the local, state, and national level; carefully scrutinizing a candidates qualifications, experience, and long-stated opinions on issues.
