    You know, if memory serves there is enough research on the subject to fill a library.

        I do think that it is better to have two parents in the family, then just to be a single parent family.

        Don’t have data for that, but it just seems common sense to me.

        Of course, there will always be exceptions, like if the father is a drug user or alcohol user or something like that. But in normal cases, two parents are better than one.

          So what's the solution? Take kids away from single parents? Force parents to stay together against their will? Outlaw selfishness?

          The article seems a little short on practical suggestions.

          I was only joking

            More like encourage desirable values, the things you hear about when you go to church

            You can find real communities there built on something other than hate Trump

            And does anyone really think there is no data to support saying fatherless homes are undesirable?

            What did I miss? Has cnn been pushing fatherless homes lately? Is this part of the narrative now?

              The problem with church is that it's on Sunday morning. Typically, my kids are too busy trying to sober me up to attend.

                              I think that is too pessimist.

                              Probably for a long long time, the older generations think the younger generations are on a path where things will get worse. The younger generations seem to figure it out.

                                    So what's the solution? Take kids away from single parents? Force parents to stay together against their will? Outlaw selfishness?

                                    The article seems a little short on practical suggestions.

                                    Social ideas. What you think and what you say.

                                    The culture of black males has been reinforced time and again by white america. It's a culture of tough, violent men. So think twice.

                                    Education is extremely important.
