Why is noting married people are happier and kids do better with married parents so controversial
NY Post ^ | 18 Feb 2024 | Karol markowicz

Getting married is better than not getting married.

Your health is better.

You’re richer.

You’re happier.

More important, children who are raised by two married parents have an advantage over those who are not.

Nothing about these factual statements should be controversial.

Which criteria would you like?

Financial advancement, less out of wedlock births in the offspring, more stability, health, less criminality?

Because it pretty much goes across the board.

Harmless Teddy Bear: Intact black families are more successful than intact white families

alexander_busek: According to what criteria?

Harmless Teddy Bear: Financial advancement, less fewer out-of-wedlock births in the offspring, more stability, health, less criminality?

I am having an extremely hard time, believing your claims. The stats for Black families generally are so bad - with far higher illegitimacy, lower annual income, higher criminality, lower life expectancy, etc. - that I find it exceedingly hard to believe that those stats should suddenly be so much better in that one category of "intact families."

Might it be an example of a statistical fluke?

Regards,

Ask Thomas Sowell.

He has been noting this since the 70s.

Marriage is good for family of all shades but seems to help black families more. Not sure why this upsets you but don't care either.

I would have to agree with that.

Men like being rich and prolific.
Women like being poor and frigid.

YMMV ;)
