I'd say the article is actually inferring that marriage is what makes a family happy and stable. That and their use of the term "illegitimate" left me unable to finish the article. I'm sure some of it is my strong anti-marriage bias but it reads like being bound by contract and law is what makes a relationship and a family stable.

> their use of the term "illegitimate" left me unable to finish the article That's a well established definition of the word; if you Google 'define illegitimate' you'll get: 1. not authorized by the law; not in accordance with accepted standards or rules. 2. (of a child) born of parents not lawfully married to each other. I don't think it really does to be offended by such things, I didn't read it as coming with any judgement from the author.
