Unwed Mothers birthed 1.5 million of the 4 million total births in the U.S. last year. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, 55% percent of births for those ages 20-24 were to unwed mothers; almost 28% for ages 25-29. Unwed couples seem to have a positive relationship and a desire to marry, but not many actually do so. (PWB 11/4/05)
