And Cohabitation is a Bad Idea

Did you know that cohabiting couples now make up almost 10% of all opposite-sex U.S. couples, married and unmarried? According to Dr. Albert Mohler,

“The U.S. Census Bureau has just reported that cohabitation among heterosexual couples has hit record numbers as living together—as opposed to getting married—becomes more and more mainstream.”

Says Mohler, “Just thirty years ago cohabitation was rare and marriage was the norm for heterosexual couples. All that has seemingly changed.”

Dr. Mohler continues, “USA Today provides extensive reporting on this issue, along with analysis that seems to celebrate this development.”

“Nevertheless,” says Mohler, “the other side of the story was downplayed. If cohabitating couples make up ‘almost 10%’ of heterosexual couples, then marriage is still very much the norm.”
