In a seminar today, we talked about how more than half of births in many Western European countries are out-of-wedlock and how the number of marriages has gone way down. Amazingly, Switzerland had one of the lowest % for out-of-wedlock births, and I swear I thought about Roger and Mirka not getting married.

Of course, the point here was about the welfare state and the economic incentives people have to marry/have a baby, etc. Don't think this kid's going to have these issues.
Switzerland is very conservative by European standards. Particularly away from large cities (Zurich, Basel and Geneva).
