Liberals argue that we should accept the new reality and support single parents by providing more child care, health care, food and cash assistance. These efforts help, but with one-third of all children now living in families like this, and child poverty rates in these families four times as high as they are in two-parent families, this is a hugely expensive proposition. It is also inconsistent with a public ethic that values self-sufficiency over dependency. Conservatives, however, have never explained how to restore marriage. Everything they have tried — from marriage-education programs to changes in the way marriage is treated in tax and benefit programs — has had little or no effect.
