The American family is falling apart

A lot of people are saying that marriage doesn't matter for children of general family live. Wel if that's the case, why is fertility way down for most (if not all) countries where the marriage rate tanked...?

The answer is simple:
When the chief pair bonding mechanism fails, the bonding fails also. There was a reason why marriage was pushed in the past. They broke the social/religious contract and with it the core of society.

Why is the answer simple? Why is that the answer? Why is the answer not something else? Can you provide any support, e.g. in the form of research, for your claim? Or is this only your personal view and not a fact that you present it as?
