The findings of a new study show that parents are more likely to stay together when they marry before having children.
76 per cent of couples who married before they had children stayed together, compared to 44 per cent who got married after their first child and 31 per cent who didn't get married at all. The study busts the myth that cohabitation is as stable as marriage and supports Biblical teaching that the best and most stable environment for having children is marriage.
