In today's society more and more children are being born out of wedlock. Why is this generation condoning this behavior?

Its not that they condone it, exactly, but people have to live. And with the current laws, it is more adventageous to NOT be married, but live together. Tax breaks, etc. There are no advantages to being married, in fact, it makes you worse off, financially. And it is only compounded by societies, "loose morals," that you constantly see on TV, movies and music. Being a lady is no longer something that society considers good. They are not the fantasies anymore. Look at all the politicians that have affairs. The women that clearly have no morals or respect for someone elses marriage, prosper big time. What type of message does that send out. So, in conclusion, it is a mixture of the two. At least, I think it is.
