For Better or Worse

Summary At the start of the 21st century one in three children is born out of wedlock. Many people choose never to wed, yet others have two or more wedding ceremonies. What happened? Marriage was an institution our society was built on. Marriage meant sex, children and financial security. To live in sin or have a child out of wedlock created shame and humiliation. But then came the pill, women working, the rise of feminism and the permissive society. In 1975, "no-fault" divorce laws were introduced. Was this a defining moment in history that changed society forever?
