I dont live in a home with both parents and
I'm okay. As long as my baby sister (or brother) knows that her mom and my dad love her (or him) she'll be just fine.
You know that.
Sorry, I don't agree.
If the 2 parents don't get along, or one treats the child badly, that's different.
But, if the parents are good to each other, and the child(ren), it's best they all live as a unit.
Even in the interests of logistics, can you imagine how hard it would be to have a child, yet raise it from a day to day standpoint as a single parent?
paying for 2 housing costs, not having someone immediately available to help out, etc. etc.
Not saying married, but it's better all around, in general, for the child and the parents to be together.
