It is not "socially normal/acceptable" to be single parent, yet 60% of young parents are single.

You are both out of reality.

What would surprise a person more in today's context in US: hearing that child's parent is divorced/single parent (which by your stats is 60% for young parents, so pretty common) OR hearing about a successful woman with a husband who has chosen to be unemployed? You can keep twisting things but we are talking about what is "typical".
Is that because a married couple is counted as one parental unit and each divorced individual as 1 for a total of 2 therefore making the number high?
It was in some article, "58% milenials"
