I have two links to articles about the number of unmarried women with kids. Of course, it’s a problem that is confined to certain demographics. These articles don’t add much that’s terribly new. They have some nice charts, and I like charts. But I new things, too. I want some new ideas here.

I’m looking for some policy ideas about what we can do for low-income women without a high school degree that have children. Do we wag our fingers and tell them that should hold out for a good man, before they make babies? Do we accept that this situation isn’t getting better and increase childcare subsidies? Do we target the men and provide them with job training, so they can become marriage material? Of course, my solution is always education related, but I’m curious what other people think.
