Thirty years ago, I lived at Youth Treatment center in Anderson, South Carolina. The only kids who even seemed like they gave a darn about their lives and futures, were the kids who came from a two-parent family where their biological parents were still married to each other.
Nevermind how dysfunctional those parents were, the kids were better-functioning. This made an impression on me, when I married and had kids on my own. For now, my kids are teenagers and early-20's Millenials. However, they're mostly well-adjusted (well, a lot more well-adjusted than I was when i was their age :).)

Previous research by the foundation has found that 93 per cent of parents who stay together until their child’s 15th birthday are married. That is to say, the "stable, long-term, nonmarital cohabiting relationship" is a myth.

Parents who are married make the children feel secure.
Even if they fight the feeling on the children's side is that they will stay together.
Even with a long term shack up that security does not exist.

How nice to see, that a study confirms what so many of us instinctively feel, that children and families do best, when children are raised by their own biological parents, within intact families.
