I’d like to see a little more data on these long term single people. It takes a village to raise another member of society. How big is one’s social circle, trustworthy friends/family, role models? I bet the monkey sphere is smaller for these people, so it feels a lot scarier to embark upon this milestone. Once upon a time it might be normal to rely on neighbors or large extended families for support, but the more isolated we get, the less safety net there is. If you didn’t work to build that network, you are pretty much handicapped in terms of giving the child the best chance possible. In other words, this demographic group might be making an extremely responsible decision.
