When shame left the pubic marketplace of ideas this was inevitable.
The concept of “the baby did nothing wrong” was bad for society in that it established a milieu where it went from “a mistake” to condonation and subsidization.
When did our public assistance programs change, so that unmarried mothers can get welfare?
I know that there was a time in this country, when a girl pregnant without a husband couldn’t just go and get on welfare because of that. The qualifications changed at some point, but I’m not sure when or who decided that there should be no “moral judgements” made.
This is a classic case of, if you subsidize or are “liberal” towards situations and behaviors, you get more of them.
Different situation, but San Francisco is overrun with homeless and human waste, due to their desire to be liberal towards the homeless. So now they have more of them.
Ditto California and other places who have declared they are “sancutaries” for illegal aliens. Being liberal towards illegals means that, these places inevitably have more illegals now.
