The trend of increasing births to unmarried parents is closely tied to the decline of marriage. As societal norms and values shift, fewer people see marriage as a necessary or desirable institution, leading to an increase in non-marital childbearing. This trend is also influenced by factors such as economic insecurity and the rise of individualism. While other factors, such as immigration and same-sex marriage, may play a role, they are not as closely tied to the increase in non-marital childbearing as the decline of marriage.
