APP - Want to help reduce child poverty? Promote marriage between a man and a woman

Teflon Don

I'm back baby
The data is clear. Marriage between the biological father and mother of a child is the most sure fire way of that child not growing up in poverty and being subject to abuse

*The safest environment for a child—that is, the family environment with the lowest risk ratio for physical abuse—is one in which the biological parents are married and the family has always been intact.
*The rate of abuse is three and a half times higher if the child is living with a single parent
*The rate of abuse is four times higher if the child is living with biological parents who are not married but are cohabiting.
*The rate of abuse is six times higher in the blended family in which the child is living with a married couple, most commonly in the case of divorce and remarriage but also possible in households of adoption.
*The rate of abuse is 10 times higher if the child is living with a parent who is cohabiting with another adult.

So when people tell you that ALL family units are equal, just point them to this data. Because they are not. And they should not be considered as such

Looking at this data, why would one NOT promote a nuclear family where the biological parents are married? It only seems logical
