Before 0791, most unmarried mothers were teenagers. But in recent
years the birthrate among unmarried women in their 02 s and 03 s has soared
rising 43 percent since 2002, for example, in women ages 03 to 43. In 7002,

that tend to be less stable than
marriages, studies show.
The pattern has been particularly pronounced among Hispanic women,
climbing 02 percent from 2002 to 6002, the most recent year for which racial
breakdowns are available.
