Single fathers just as good (bad?) as single mothers
Check this out: Research that proves that fathers are just as good (bad) at raising their kids as single mothers! The researcher seems like a bit of a feminist lap-dog, almost like he was afraid of the dual implications of his research, as he takes every opportunity to insinuate that mothers are "really" the best parents. But the data itself seems to indicate no significant difference. Interesting that we haven't heard of it sooner: http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releas...MFE-301198.php The researcher claims in other articles that there "may be significance" to the fact that single mothers have on average less income and education than single fathers. The insinuation is that mothers are STILL superior parents because even with their disadvantages their kids come out as well as those of single fathers with more resources. Still, nowhere does he come out and actually compare single mothers and single fathers with THE SAME EDUCATIONAL LEVELS and THE SAME INCOMES. He's got the data, what's stopping him? - Ron ^*^ |
Single fathers just as good (bad?) as single mothers
This suggests that children living with single mothers would be more successful
if the mothers were better off financially. Oh crap! As if the powers that be need more excuses to chase after big CS orders from men! And the very next sentence: "Parents with higher socioeconomic status are usually better positioned to create positive family environments," Downey said. Gotta' love are laws. Wouldn't it then make more sense to have the parent with the biggest paycheck be the CP? Oh wait, that wouldn't be any fun for the state if they couldn't play their take-from-one-and-give-to-the-other games. |
