So IYO what I said does not describe the majority or you’re just one of those that takes the exclusion and attempts to placate that to the whole? Don’t bother, it was a rhetorical question.
Her point was to ignore the statistical data you provided and crawl into the gutter of projecting racism…where there isn’t any. That is a “ball and chain” on the ankle of addressing this real problem.
Absolutely true. It’s not a function of the race. It’s a function of marriage.
The question in this thread is focused on black children because the absence of fathers in the home is ultra-disproportionately concentrated in black families. It’s the elephant in the room regarding the whole black question that is deliberately being ignored.
You can continue to ignore it. Highlighting the thundering silence from a noteworthy segment of society on this question is calling out people like you and the rest of the lib cohort on this board.
It’s very concerning, and you are absolutely correct there has been a dramatic spike in this trend since the 1960’s for all races. Today nearly 50% of all children born in the US are born at or near poverty. In other words there has been a dramatic shift in who is having children.
Does anyone have any links of these statistics? Or am I supposed to just accept word of mouth?
Some fathers are absent due to incarceration, or deportation. Others are not married to the mothers, but are actively in their lives.
Being born outside wedlock, or even parents being divorced, does not mean dad is out of the picture altogether.
Does anyone have any links to show dad not only never married mom, but abandoned all these kids? I’ll never understand not marrying—it is the ideal for the sexual relationship—but am not losing any zs if these guys are actively parenting.
