Default 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:

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?
