Personally, I don’t think there is a particular type of a society someone belongs to if they choose not to forgo the traditional benefits of marriage? I haven’t met anyone who specifically chooses to have children outside of marriage. The women I know have involved themselves in a man they had hoped they would get married too. However, the men in their life have ditched them mid way through their pregnancy. At this point, the father of child never accepts his role or stays in the child’s life from a distance. A child will grow up not having a father figure in his/her life and/or having a father figure that visits on occasion. Of course, each individual needs to be taken into account. How one may handle a situation like this may not be the same for others. As for the child, I’m sure a child will be conflicted and have challenges to face in the future. But situations like this create a unique individual. It all depends on how you look at it.
