Monash University and online dating service eharmony have teamed up for a Future of Dating research project, which predicted that by 2038 the majority of babies born will come from parents who met online. The study project lead by Monash School of Business professor Yelena Tsarenko primarily focused on speculating the effect online dating will have on families and relationships over the coming decades. They suggest that by 2030, over a third of babies will be ebabies, which is huge leap forward considering just two decades ago online dating was very much in its infancy.
