The percentage of parents who are unmarried or have no
registered partnership has greatly increased in the past decades. In 1990 it was 11 percent, and now it is 44
percent. For first-born children, the
figure is over 50 percent. This data was
made public by the Central Bureau of Statistics. For nine out of ten children born out of
wedlock, the father is known. Most
fathers formally acknowledge their babies during pregnancy. Only in the Netherlands Bible Belt is the
percentage of children born to married parents high.
