I got a hard time believing this.. 42% of black men have no children? 
Are they including black males once they turn 18?

What is so hard to believe about that statistic?

What age of black men is the study done on? Because that many men not having children makes no sense to me.
Hi,
"Although we do not have this estimate in published tables, our subject-matter expert ran a quick tab in Data Ferrett. It is for Black alone men age 15 and over, in answer to the question about how many biological children they have ever fathered. Of the 12.95 million Black alone men in 2009, 5.5 million, or 42 percent, have not fathered a child. Of course, this includes many young men who will eventually father a child. The data set does not show Black alone or in combination as a racial category."
