27 Facts That Prove That The Family In America Is In The Worst Shape Ever

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Michael Snyder of The Economic Collapse blog,

The family is one of the fundamental building blocks of society.  If you do not have strong families, you are not going to have a strong society.  Unfortunately, the state of the family in America continues to deteriorate.  The marriage rate has fallen to an all-time low, we lead the world in divorce, and about a third of all children live in a home without a father. 

Our young people have been taught that getting married and having a family is not a priority, and many of those that would like to get married and have children are not able to get the kinds of jobs that they need to support a familyThe statistics that you are about to see should absolutely shock you. 

American families have never been this weak, and this is an incredibly troubling sign for the future of our nation.  What will future generations of Americans be like if they do not have stable homes to grow up in?  Will they be even more messed up than we are right now?  That is a frightening thought.  

The following are 27 facts that prove that the family in America is in the worst shape ever...

#1 The marriage rate in the United States has fallen to an all-time low.  Right now it is sitting at a yearly rate of 6.8 marriages per 1000 people.

#2 Today, an all-time low 44.2 percent of Americans in the 25 to 34 year old age bracket are married.

#3 According to the Pew Research Center, only 51 percent of all adults in the United States are currently married.  Back in 1960, 72 percent of all adults in the United States were married.

#4 Back in 1950, 78 percent of all households in the United States contained a married couple.  Today, that number has declined to 48 percent.

#5 100 years ago, 4.52 were living in the average U.S. household, but now the average U.S. household only consists of 2.59 people.

#6 The United States has the highest percentage of one person households on the entire planet.

#7 In the United States today, more than half of all couples "move in together" before they get married.

#8 The divorce rate for couples that live together first is significantly higher than for those that do not.

#9 For women under the age of 30 in the United States, more than half of all babies are being born out of wedlock.

#10 In 1970, the average woman had her first child when she was 21.4 years old.  Now the average woman has her first child when she is 25.6 years old.

#11 According to the Centers for Disease Control, there were 69.3 births per 1,000 women in the 15 to 44 year old age bracket in 2007. Now the rate has fallen to 63.2 births per 1,000 women.

#12 The birth rate for American women in the 20 to 24 year old age bracket has fallen to 85.3 births per 1,000 women.  That is a new all-time record low.

#13 The United States has the highest divorce rate in the entire world.

#14 At this point, approximately one out of every three children in the United States lives in a home without a father.

#15 Without a father around, many single mothers in this country are really struggling to survive.  Sadly, approximately 42 percent of all single mothers in the United States are on food stamps.

#16 It is being projected that approximately 50 percent of all U.S. children will be on food stamps at some point before they reach the age of 18.

#17 Today, more than a million public school students in the United States are homeless.  This is the first time that has ever happened in our history.

#18 The United States has the highest teen pregnancy rate in the entire world.  In fact, the United States has a teen pregnancy rate that is more than twice as high as Canada, more than three times as high as France and more than seven times as high as Japan.

#19 In the United States today, approximately 47 percent of all high school students have had sex.

#20 Approximately one out of every four teen girls in the United States has at least one sexually transmitted disease.

#21 According to one survey, 24 percent of all U.S. teens that have at least one sexually transmitted disease say that they still have unprotected sex.

#22 Instead of being raised by parents, an increasing number of children in America are being raised by movies, television and video games.  For example, the average young American will spend 10,000 hours playing video games before the age of 21.

#23 Americans are tied with the British for the highest average number of hours spent watching television each week.

#24 There are more than 3 million reports of child abuse in the United States every single year.

#25 The United States actually has the highest child abuse death rate in the developed world.

#26 Approximately 20 percent of all child sexual abuse victims in the United States are under the age of 8.

#27 It is estimated that one out of every four girls will be sexually abused before they become adults.

Unfortunately, this is a problem that is not going to be fixed overnight.  Getting the "right politicians" into office will not solve our problems and neither will spending a bunch of money.

The change that we need is a change of the heart.  We need to change how we treat one another and we need to get our priorities straight.

Our families are really messed up, and this is hurting our kids the most.  There is no way that this country is going to have any hope for a bright future unless our families start getting stronger.

Or could it be possible that I am overreacting?

What do you think?

Debt, when you refer to feminism, do you group all women in that group? Just wondering...

It's not the women. Women are victims of feminisim as well, perhaps even moreso than men. Feminism is a tool of cultural destruction. It is a weapon of war. The culture has been under attack. If you wish to preserve a culture, you must preserve the people who create it.

tell it to Mary Wollstonecraft, one of the first feminist writers, circa the 1790s - an era when many sought a form of independence from previous centuries oppressive regimes, and spent time examing the notion of what rights were accorded humans, inherently.  kinda libertarian really, before the word got co-opted by a voter-base.

oh, and the basic tenent of "feminism" is the notion that females are equal to males in a cultural context, and deserve the same basic rights accorded to males.

total cultural destruction, right?  I'd agree.  it's called revolution, and this nationstate could use one, soon.

The feminist revolution of the 1970's has come to fruition, as the statistics in the article have so eloquently illustrated. I am certain that the Freidens, Abzugs, and Steinems are very satisfied. But as always, it's all in the family.

Just because nobody has the statistics to "prove" it, doesn't mean half of these weren't the case 50, 100, 200 years ago.

Bourgeois unreality is coming to an end. The past 200 years have been a mass delusion.

"#10 In 1970, the average woman had her first child when she was 21.4 years old.  Now the average woman has her first child when she is 25.6 years old."

 

Yup, if we were a real country, they'd be poppin' 'em out at an average age of 14.

 

This guy soundslike a fascist moron who wants to tell people what to do for the good of his master race.  Can't believe I am seeing this drivel here.  Very disappointing.  

If you want a good family, make it yourself.  If not, you're just a whiner and complainer.

 

Is the next one going to be about the "War on Christmas?"

Family in America deteriorates because tax grabbing, lobbyist loving, two faced lying CONgress promotes:

corporatism, narcissistic consumerism, zionism, islamism, homosexuality, dumbed down schools...and a free ride for anyone who believes in taking more than they give.

None of that  would be a problem if they gave more than they take. Instead, they take most and give least. Family offends their greed.

The '60s generation are the only ones in the history of humankind to leave their children worse off than they were.

Good article. It provides a great condensation of the ramifications of allowing liberalism and feminism to overtake our society.

 

* For decades we have been told that tolerance on social issues is the loving thing to do.

* The job of "Mom" has been under attack since waaay before Hillary let loose with the "staying at home and making cookies for my man"  comment.

* Men are made to look like assholes on TV.

* Weekday morning TV shows like "The View" regularly suggest that women can do it all alone and not to take on the baggage and headache of a man.

* Divorce is now glamorized by most broadcast media.

* The USGOV has structured social programs to actually make it profitable to have as many kids out of wedlock as possible

 

My personal take on the matter is "fuck the bitches".

Now that the economy has turned South and is picking up speed, all of a sudden the women of America are starting to rethink things.

Too late, bitches. The collective damage is done. You and your gal pals have effectively destroyed the desire of most men to get married, AT LEAST TO AN AMERICAN GAL.

Those late night dreams you have of "just add Daddy and stir" only happens in Hollywood movies.

Now that the party is over, the vast majority of divorced women are experiencing a lifestyle known as Marriage 2.Hoe.

If they already have baggage from a previous marriage they ended, few men are willing to race down the isle to take that on.

Far to risky on multiple levels, not the least of which is financial.

 

My strongest advice to unmarried guys out there is to go live abroad for a few years, preferably in a 2nd or 3rd world country.

You will see DRAMATIC differences between the women outside the U.S. and the increasingly 'thick' pickins here in the U.S..

From understanding and embracing their God given role (and Yours), to the way they treat their men, to their values, their devotion and dedication to family, etc..., it is my personal opinion that women from Asia and Latin America run circles around their American competition. You will be much happier.

 

Bitches, BITCHEZ !

Devine wind,
I have agreement with you in the fact many women today have been indoctinate to have anti man sentiment but am mystified why you just go into a " let's just hate them all, fuck them all to hell!" rant. Is this really a solution? Or are you just aiming to start a man / woman hate war here? We need to repair the damage, discuss our grievances and come together. Division will DETROY us. Yes, some women and men are so twisted in hate they are lost. But many are not. I refuse to give up on those who will talk to me no matter how angry they are. Vehement hatred has only one course. Please don't go there.

Yes, Divine Wind, in the old days, women couldn't get good jobs.  They had to be married if they wanted to reproduce.  They couldn't vote, couldn't own property; were basically chattel.

Dudes like you did REALLY WELL in that setup!!  Women were STUCK marrying loser assholes!!!

Act fast!!!   Find a society where women as just as oppressed, as American women used to be!!!!

BTW, all the divorced American women I know, have had no problem finding someone to marry.  Lots of desperate American guys.  I feel sorry for the ones who aren't misogynists like you.

But I do agree that loser American guys should go to Asia.  They abort their girls there, so there aren't a lot of them (and the competition for them is fierce), and they can be somewhat cynical (in China the saying is "marry for money, the love will follow), but at least the language barrier can keep you deluded for a while, until your money runs out.

The Communist Takeover Of America - 45 Declared Goals:
1. U.S. acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.
2. U.S. willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.
3. Develop the illusion that total disarmament [by] the United States would be a demonstration of moral strength.
4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5. Extension of long-term loans to Russia and Soviet satellites.
6. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.
7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.
8. Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the German question by free elections under supervision of the U.N.
9. Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the United States has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress. 10. Allow all Soviet satellites individual representation in the U.N.
11. Promote the U.N. as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one-world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the U.N. as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo.)
12. Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.
13. Do away with all loyalty oaths.
14. Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office.
15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.
18. Gain control of all student newspapers. 19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.
22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms."
23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."
24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.
26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy."
27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."
28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man."
31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of the "big picture." Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture--education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33. Eliminate all laws or procedures which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34. Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35. Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.
36. Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business.
38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat].
39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special-interest groups should rise up and use ["]united force["] to solve economic, political or social problems.
43. Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44. Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45. Repeal the Connally reservation so the United States cannot prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction [over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction] over nations and individuals alike.

Nice recital, but did you know the Communist movement like many others is another Jewish push for destabilization?  How about the supposed "Russian Revolution", for example?

Look it up, Jewish overthrow through and through, from funding to execution (literally).

Ever wonder why your idiot box won't cover the fact that 10-15x more people died in Russia at the hands of Jews than even the wildest Jew imagination can conjure up had died in the holocaust, which gets 24/7 airplay on all media outlets?

Honestly, the goyim deserve what they get.  Jews were right, they're nothing but cattle to be exploited.

Henry Ford nailed it in The International Jew, yet most Goyim don't even know it exists!

The control of media was instrumental in moving the agenda forward.  But more so, the inability to state explicitly the group by name deflected attention away from the goal to expand power and control over a nation in covert war.  Being a racist was the one word response to anyone who addressed  the cornering of strategic industries appeared to be taking place disproportionately in a concentrated effort to implement predatory business practices.

The family in America was built on a number of variables like job money, religion, community, low divorce rate, sex in marriage , etc. Most of those variables are gone from the American family of today. For most Americans today, there is no need to marry and raise a family. Hence the out of wedlock explosition  among the under age 30 crowd. Not to pain with a broad brush but, our collective American society no longer believes in th concept of the family. Pop those workers out of the womb and let the government and the collective  "village take care of them." No need for fathers or mother, anymore. No need for families any more either.

Raising a family is no easy task in such an anti-family society.  Mothers are not lauded for staying at home to bring up their children as they see fit.  No; both parents are nudged by societal pressure or forced by economic need into the workplace grind, and the children are "cared for" by a dizzying array of nannies or shunted off to day care.  Parents are too tired and depleted at the end of the day to provide that elusive "quality time", and the kids fail to learn the basic niceties of socialization.  Paradoxically, children are less independent than ever, as parents attempt to hold onto the vestiges of control whenever and however long as possible, perhaps to assuage their own sense of guilt at not being there enough to really parent full-time.

Granted, Americans are dumber than most Goyim, being convinced to kill or die for murderous scumbags while they pay taxes that will fund their own demise, but other than that most of the world is in the same position.  

Americans are especially retarded, but really we're all fucked.  JWO and it's cover "globalism" are already complete.

Folks need to start going back to Church and get the government out of legislating morality.   They suck.

Socialist UTOPIA!

Who said the Soviets didn't win. Not only did they export the poison of socialism to the west but then they took capitalism back home with them

Nobody should be surprised the devil relentlessly attacks the family, after all ". . . marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan. . ."

Divorce Can Spell Big Boost to Women's Happiness, UK Research Shows

July 10, 2013 — Women tend to become much more happy and satisfied with their lives after their divorces come through, according to researchers at London's Kingston University.

The study published in the journalEconomica shows that women are significantly more content than usual for up to five years following the end of their marriages, even more so than their own average or 'baseline' level of happiness throughout their lives.

the american family started to deteriorate in the decade after nixon lifted us from the gold standard. once a parent could not be home with the kids because the life they knew was not affordable, kids became latchkey kids, requiring aftercare, nintendos, and the like

my mom stayed home with my brothers and i. my wife works full time and i am lucky enough to work from home to be there for my kids. find 10 families you know and ask how many kids have parents home when they get out of school, camp, etc

With the planet becoming more and more overpopulated, the fact that births are decreasing is NOT a bad thing at all.

And anyway why should people be married? Animals who mate for life don't go to their nearest marriage registry office to do so?

A piece of paper won't stop a man or a woman seeking 'extras on the side' if they want that.

A lot of so called settled or long term marriages are anything but, with the man, or even the woman being mentally/physically abusive to their partner, that may be good on paper but for the life of the abused it is not.

This is a completely depressing summation of what our society has become.

Why buy the cow when you get the milk for free? 

Besides, with the state of Family Courts in the U.S., you're better off betting it all on the Roulette Table than betting you've chosen the only woman in the U.S. who won't divorce you for any reason (not too mention studies showing shocking stats on cheatin'), get half, get custody, get child support and alimony, and eventually suck your veins dry.

The bullshit is piling up around Snowman like a blizzard. If Snowman were professional, he would have front loaded his dump to make the alleged villains run from their outed crimes, not him running from them, buying them time as he is. But he didn't, so he's either occluded by the alleged sinister force he opposes, or he's not real - a puppet on someones' strings - and this is all Hollywood magic, by the real sinister forces.

Their efforts to block & discredit him imply the former. But these could be faked too. We must all go to the truths we can prove to figure this out, for ourselves. 

To lie is to sin. There is nothing more basic than this. From maskara to the most advanced psyops, including every university that teaches hypothesis as 'fact', every judge who legislates from their bench, you're all less intelligent than the simplest retarded person struggling to make it through the day with dignity. Are you great? What have you done? To lie is to depart from reality because reality is too much for you. Genius is the ability to recognize and then to act on reality. Zero in and report back, not make shit up to get laid. Chickenfuckers.

So to the author of this article, and all the others like it in all the medias, present the specific datum upon which you assert your many unbased claims. Before you do, know that I am able in statistics, not alone, and will demonstrate mathematically that you are all completely full of shit. I know what you're doing, I know why. Be truthful or be forever humiliated as the puppet you are. 

I call you out. Show your data.

Bring it.
