Twenty five million children are growing up without fathers in the home. That’s 40%
of the kids in America. As reported by the Center for Children and Families.

In 1960, just 5 million children under 18 lived with only their mother. By 1980 that
number had more than doubled. Today, according to the Annie E. Casey Foundation,
19 million children live in single-mother families, up from 17 million in 2000. In some
school districts today, including several in New York and Michigan, the majority of
families are led by a single mother.

Right, so if this actually IS an issue worth looking at, what are we gonna ACTUALLY do about it?

You know, stuff that ACTUALLY works, not the lipservice that those cunts of politicians spend all day spouting.

How many of those missing fathers are absent because they are incarcerated? Perhaps, to tackle the issue of single parent families, it would be wise to start by tackling the issue of mass incarceration in the USA.

It's definitely a problem

And you can thank the point when feminism went from mere equality to something more along the lines of entitlement

Today's feminism is cancer and is one of the root causes for the destruction of the family unit

...and an uprising in deadbeat dads could possibly be linked to the cancer of modern feminism

deadbeat dads and bitch wives were around long before "modern feminism"
