Interesting question and I don't know what my answer would be.

There's an interesting quote that runs something like this. Give me the child till he's seven and I give you the man.

The sister of a friend of mine got pregnant after a one-night stand.

Her parents stood by her and she became the mother of a little girl. No marriage. She was a single mother.

That little girl is today the most delightful mother of two talented little girls.

This question is hard to answer. Backgrounds, parental influence, or lack thereof, can impact badly on an individual.

In the same way, love and encouragement can.
