New Stats: Change Is Interesting
The National Center of Health Statistics just coughed up its numbers, and the headline maker this time around is that the number of babies born to unmarried women has set a record high.
What do the numbers mean? Everyone surely will have an opinion. Does it mean fewer couples are getting married? Are more women choosing to have kids on their own? Are their more lesbian couples having children?
I'll bet dollars to donuts that political folks will find ways of spinning these details in ways that make everyone unhappy.
In the meantime, I'm hoping that this information might suggest some different interpretations of family that could, with the help of a new administration, bring great progress, great change, great news.
