I think any woman should have the right to decide without government interference. Furthermore, it is debatable whether a single or unmarried woman makes a good or bad mother. Look at China's divorce statistics and you will find that many woman get divorced after having a child and now are faced with upbringing this child as sole parent. Most of the time it works out just fine for the child, with few exceptions, because a woman by nature is more nurturing. Sure, it would be ideal for a child to have a "set" of parents, but that how life is... Some women do have a very strong desire to be a mother, but do not wish to get entangled with a man/husband.
