The number of unmarried women having children went up abruptly to the United States and several other countries, according to agents of the Health of the United States.
In the United States, 40 percent of births are now to the mothers unwed, and the majority of the latter are to the women in their 20s, not to teenagers, according to a report/ratio, the evolutions of the structure of the pregnancy of Nonmarital in the United States, released Wednesday by the centers for control and the prevention of the diseases of the United States.
Then having relative stability in single person woman birth of medium of the Nineties to 2002, us the 'increases really great sights by VE between 2002 and 2007, said Stephanie J. Ventura, directors of the reproductive branch of statistics at the national centre of CDC 'of S for the statistics of health and the author of the report/ratio.
In the United States, the births out-of-wedlock increased by 26 percent between 2002 and 2007, according to the report/ratio. In 1980, the rate of births out-of-wedlock was of 18 percent.
However the reasons of the increase are not, Ventura indicated, a clear factor could be that which has a child when you 'about step to marry is not stigmatized any more.
Overall Sujet about the social disapproval evaporated rather much into 10 or 15 last years, and, him 'of S even now Ventura indicated.
Moreover, the numbers of women having births out-of-wedlock in so large and widespread the east United States in all the groups of population which they cannot be explained by socio-economic factors, Ventura said.
The tendencies, although, concern, it said.
Naissances with the unmarried women is at the larger risk for, poorer of results of birth Ventura said. They are to be low weight of birth, are before term and to die in childhood. Other research proved that the children are easier being increased in the biparentaux families.
Moreover, because the majority of these births are not planned, she said, there could be substantial preoccupations with a public health.
Bill Albert, a spokesperson so that the national campaign prevents the pregnancy of adolescence and not planned, said that he thinks that many Americans put seriously 'taken T having children.
This puts nail in coffin of this perception erroneous the majority American have that nonmarital pregnancy is something which is mainly, of the adolescence of activity Albert said.
Moreover, the report/ratio confirms that the United States is not alone in the high rate of births out-of-wedlock says it adding that this are not a social and cultural revolution which is single in the United States.
The true exit, Albert said, is the wellbeing of these children. We have now approximately two decades of the good research of the social science which arrives at the conclusion in which, like general question, the children improve base in conflict, magnet, biparental families it said.
One needs more education about the responsibility which goes with having children, as well as education about contraception, it said.
Jeunes must understand that to have children and the education of the children is a reward but, extremely provocant of task Albert indicated. It is not something which should be undertaken slightly. As general question, each one must take the important matter of the sex, contraception, pregnancy and pregnancy with the serious one.
For the comparison, Ventura looked at births out-of-wedlock in other industrialized countries between 1980 and 2007 and found an increase dramatic there too well.
The greatest increases were seen of the Netherlands, where the births out-of-wedlock went up from 4 to 40 percent. In Spain, the climbed births out-of-wedlock of 4 percent up to 28 percent, in Ireland the numbers went from 5 to 33 percent and in Italy they went up from 4 to 21 percent.
Other results in the report/ratio include:
- The countries with a higher percentage of the births to the mothers unwed than recorded in the United States include Iceland (66 percent), Sweden (55 percent), Norway (54 percent), France (50 percent), Denmark (46 percent) and RU (44 percent).
- The countries with lower rates of births out-of-wedlock than the United States include Ireland (33 percent), Germany (30 percent), Canada (30 percent), Spain (28 percent), Italy (21 percent) and Japan (2 percent).
- In the United States, the births out-of-wedlock are highest among women in their beginning of the year 20 and lowest among girls younger than 18 and women older than 35.
- The majority of births at the years of adolescence are at the unmarried years of adolescence. For those 15 to 17 old, 93 percent of births are out-of-wedlock, just as 84 percent of births at the years of the years of adolescence 18 to 19.
- Among women in their 20s, 45 percent of births are with those which are not married. In 2007, among years of women 20 to 24,60 percent of births were out-of-wedlock, starting from 52 percent in 2002. Almost 33 percent of births at the years of women 25 to 29 were out-of-wedlock in 2007, starting from 25 percent in 2002.
- The Hispanic women have the highest birth rate out-of-wedlock (106 births by 1.000). The rate for coloured women is 72 by 1.000 births; for the women white, him 's 32 by 1.000.
Laura Lindberg, an elder associate of research at the institute of Guttmacher to New York City, sees the results like reflexion of social change in the United States.
While few people are married during their 20s, they have more occasion to have, nonmarital birth Lindberg said.
These changes occur in everyone industrialized, and the pregnancy nonmarital, much less stigmatized become it said. That what we have is a changing definition of family.
