That's the finding of extensive research by the Marriage Foundation which looked at the results of a survey of 40,000 people.
It's discovered that the average break-up rate of married parents is one-point-three per cent per year, compared to 5.3% for unmarried couples. Analyst Harry Benson told Premier's News Hour it's frustrating that this clear evidence is not being heard by enough people.
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
