Yes, but almost the same number of blacks, even I think into the 70% area, don’t get married. So they can’t have kids by more than one husband, if they don’t even get married.

And even if you are talking about a second marraige, even those tend to be more financially unstable than a long term one on one marriage. Due to alimony, child support, the temporary (sometimes) division of a household.

BOR is right on this. He misses an awful lot of stuff, but this he is right on.

I’m not familiar with BOR’s take on this, so I can’t agree or disagree. I’ll have to take your word for it.

My only contention with the story itself, was that second marriages are common, and nearly as detrimental as children out of wedlock. The study made no effort to separate the two.
