Yes, they are. If the child comes before the commitment, then the likelihood of the mother having to raise the child by herself is pretty significant. Society, unfortunately, is far too accepting of absentee fathers.

OK at this point we are arguing semantics. I agree with the other poster though out of wetlock births reduce the chances of a two parent home significantly. Sure there are two parent homes where the parents remain unmarried but the are like lottery winners few and far between. I would wager two parent unmarried households make up far less than 1% of our present demographics so that's is kind of a red herring you threw out there. Also the number of sexual partners you have certainly effects likelihood of not only getting married but staying together.
