It takes a marriage, and one that's more stable than not. Children need the see from an early age that there are things in life you can't just walk away from.It turns out that most single women getting abortions were not in commited relationships, but were "friends with benefits". 6% of women are getting 38% of the abortions. That 6% would be half of the 12% (black), 75% of which are US unwed mothers. Wonder about the high crime rate and the school to prison pipeline? It takes a commited relationship to raise decent kids.
