Giving birth is a miracle and there's no question about it. I see at least one to two expectant mothers daily. There was once a time though that if a woman wasn't married giving birth, or being an expectant mother brought a shame to the family. Over the years, that's almost like a vapor of time gone away and seems not too likely to be returning. I however, still uphold in my moral mind that any woman and man expecting should be married, but I know not everyone thinks this way at all. Just two nights ago, I saw a beautiful baby girl and the couple unmarried; but I pondered on it for a few moments what has happened when the young man married his expected mother of his children. Giving birth is shared in a union of two people. I think the whole situation is totally reversed. Now couples give birth never marry, and even separate or break-up with children left in the middle of never having both their natural parents around. It's a true life situation and it's more and more commonly known right where I live. Giving birth is a miracle, but giving of both parents is a miracle too. I don't know perhaps the old ways need to be reviewed and renewed. In my own opinion when there's a new birth-- marriage and morals need return to an old perception before babies are born.
Great input Irma. Babies are beautiful, and of course ; confidence in yourself is all encouraged over a bad marriage, or a even worst divorce. One should choose to marry as equally yoked as possible, this I certainly agree. I feel the morals of being marriage should come before giving birth. However, I'm inclined to follow spiritual morals which are backed by God. It's my nature to be in tune as much as possible with Divine authority which righteous governs childbirth, marriage --which He teaches how children should be born.

I have never given birth nor have I ever been pregnant, but I believe people should be married before bringing forth a child in this world. For the life of me I cannot understand why couples of today are bearing children without the benefit of marriage, or why a man would not do for his child because he and the mother does not get along.
I mean if the man understands that this is his seed you would think that would be important enough. Especially when the seed is a girl because most girls have that daddy’s little girl’s syndrome. We see far too often that a lot of girls grow up looking for that daddy in all the wrong ways. We talk about prevention but how far in advance do we prepare? I just don’t think a man or woman should abandon their child/children because of not getting along. If children are that easy or unimportant than why hasn’t the Creator given up on us?
Irma, this such a broad subject of discussion and can taken into many directions as the world has it now. Women can be virgins through artifical insemenation and give birth, and as the world would have. It's true; you can choose to have it your own way --and it's your life to make one own decisions, and in addition; even choices of these can also turn out badly. In all the formations of giving birth; again-- for those who rather take the spiritual view, they maintain keeping the ways God would have it. In even being governed by Divine power over their marriage and children. It could very well be said that marriage can ONLY be regulated "from a far" because of the divinity involved; if women, men and children have taken to choose a higher power over themselves. Not to say; it is will all be a perfect ride, but it will be a perfect selection which God approves. Lifestyles for them is the divine way to follow.
Then there isn't it much analysis on why are marriages have been or are going bad? What is lacking that makes such a sacred vow and birth a curse? One may think it is a most one powerful God that is absent in today's choices of marriage and birth. Women have proven they are strong.
Like you have given other views, there are still other views as for those women never wanting to marry, or bare children. Or women wanting children, but no marriage. Look how far this discussion can have many venues. I'm wanting to make it known though, that my way in mind is godly. Men and women often choose what they want for themselves and in somewhat of a curse have they have cursed themselves...
What a great topic, though it's broad there may be some relative reasoning which may be grasped to consider what we do with our bodies are not always good at all. We need more of godly ways too. Great topic, and I value your comments, always. Give more..
Oh, another thing too Irma, oftentimes women have chose abortions because of their own reasoning and even in rape as you mentioned some abortions have taken place, as well as birth. Truly, thousands upon thousands are pro-life regardless of any situation of cause. Interesting.
