It's not frowned upon if that's what a woman wants in life. It's rather a case of women not being expected or obliged to conform to what other people think they should do.
Then she shouldn't complain when being a whore causes her problems.

What on earth are you on about?
And yet, it's better for a woman (and for her kids) who wants or has kids to have someone supporting her so that she can take of her children.
Our Christian school students typically score two grades higher than comparable public school kids on standardized tests.

Depends. Plenty single mothers have support from family and friends so it doesn't necessarily have to come in the form of a husband or partner. If the woman wants that then absolutely fine, nobody with any sensible opinion would criticize her for that. However, women should not be obliged to fulfil some patriarchal, traditional ideal.

Nope. Women aren't "sinning" if they don't get married and have children and nor should they be expected to just because some pompous patriarchs find anything else 'unseemly'.

God created marriage as the place for children to be born and raised by a father and a mother.
That you feel such hatred for that "patriarchy" shows where your problem lies.

I have no problem with marriage at all. I have no problem with women not getting married either. That was easy.

Women should not be "sleeping around". Neither should men.
Sex and child bearing belong in marriage.

I didn't even allude to anyone 'sleeping around' anyway. If a woman chooses to pursue a career and not have children, is that a problem for you?

Of course not. This thread is about PARENTS as the title indicates.

Well, it hardly fits in with the patriarchal, religious ideal though does it? So, if you've no problem with a woman pursuing a career and not having children then what's wrong with a woman choosing to raise a child by herself?

It obviously depends on circumstances.
I asked them how they graduated from high school with no knowledge of the English language. I just repeated their answer here. And this was no inner city school system. This was in a rural town of less than 40,000 people and was predominantly white. There wasn't a single black person in the class. There were a couple of Japanese exchange students but they knew more than the local kids about the English language.
The teacher was ready to throw the class over and just give up. I talked her into helping these kids learn basic English and helped teach the class as a student volunteer. It was the best anyone could do for them. At least after the class was done they could write an understandable sentence.
The kids were educated in socialism but nothing else. School for them was purely socialist indoctrination.

Abusive spouse would be an example.

No argument on that one. However, should be obligated to find another husband to fit in with the traditional, patriarchal paradigm instead of bringing up her child by herself?
