In the latest left-wing attack on the nuclear family, NPR suggested last week that “marriage could look very different in the future.”

The story noted that “over the past few decades, cohabitation rates have nearly doubled” and “more children are being born outside of marriage.” The taxpayer-subsidized organization then gleefully proclaimed that “there’s been buzz around polyamory and open relationships” because “younger generations [are] less set on following tradition.”
