The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently published new data on the role that American fathers play in parenting their children. Most of the CDC’s previous research on family life — which the agency explores as an important contributor to public health and child development — has focused exclusively on mothers. But the latest data finds that the stereotypical gender imbalance in this area doesn’t hold true, and dads are just as hands-on when it comes to raising their kids.

That includes African-American fathers.

In fact, in its coverage of the study, the Los Angeles Times noted that the results “defy stereotypes about black fatherhood” because the CDC found that black dads are more involved with their kids on a daily basis than dads from other racial groups:

My father has been in my life everyday.

Wait... cacs lied to us? *sarcasm

:ohhh:

When I spent 5 years battling for custody of my children, I noticed black men in court ALWAYS had their shyt together. The cac dads on the other hand were making every mistake in the book from not showing up to scheduled times to putting their children at risk and exposing them to dangerous situations. I'm not shocked by these results.

The breh's who don't jump ship immediately tend to do a damn good job. It's damn obvious meeting a young breh with an active caring father vs one without. I would say that having a decent pops in your life is more important than money(besides devastating poverty like having to jump from eviction to eviction) - it's one of those things you notice about their demeanor and personality.

Salute to all black fathers putting in that work! :salute:

The only deadbeat I've ever known was a white dude:yeshrug:

I know it's against coli-law, but my best friend stepped in as a father to a kid that isn't his, and he's no longer with the mother. Lil breh's dad was murdered the other month too.

I'm talking 5 years of multiple court dates. I'd have to write a book to give the subject justice. In short, the cac dads lose their cool over the fact they their exes have control. They lash out (not in court) and do things to kill the momentum of getting more custody and of course it all gets brought up in court. Whereas black men keep records and receipts and present evidence that substantiates their claims.

My father has been with me my whole life. Glad reports like these are being conducted to dispell stereotypes against black men.
