Child of Unmarried Parents

Children don’t really need two parents as long as the family has adequate financial resources. Children never have any problems with their parents’ new love interests.

ARE YOU A VICTIM OF THE SEXUAL REVOLUTION?

Dear Friend,

We have identified twelve categories of people who have been harmed by the Sexual Revolution. This questionnaire explores the Child of Unmarried Parents. Use this checklist to see if you are a Victim of the Sexual Revolution.

Our goal here is not merely to identify Victims. The goal is to help the Victims become Survivors, and the Survivors to become Activists for positive change.

Are You a Child of Unmarried Parents?

  • Were your parents married to each other when you were born?
  • If not, did they marry someone else during your childhood?
  • Was money tight during your childhood?
  • Was money particularly tight when your primary parent was between love interests?
  • Were you expected to have a relationship with your parents’ new love interest(s)?
  • Did you change your housing situation often?
  • Did you have a relationship with your absent parent?
  • Did your primary parent treat your other parent disrespectfully in front of you and your siblings?
  • Did your primary parent speak disrespectfully of your other parent or their family, in front of you and your siblings?
  • Did you ever feel like a leftover, when your parent had a new baby with a new partner?
  • Did you ever go to family court? Were you asked to testify against one of your parents? Were you ever asked to choose between your parents? Were you ever asked to perjure yourself by one parent against the other in family court?
  • Did your parents’ new love interests ever abuse you?
  • Do you feel that your situation as a Child of Unmarried Parents is socially invisible?
