The likelihood may rise, but until the parent actually leaves the house, there is no problem. An unmarried couple who decides to have kids and raise them together in a constructive way is in no way a detriment to society. The wedlock part is independently inconsequential
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.

It may be semantics, but it's an important distinction as modern life is showing an increasing number of out of wedlock, two-parent families as a viable social entity.
