Why is it ONLY around Fathers Day do we have these types of arguments?
Mother's Day, we all full of love for moms and women in general. And I don't say this to dog women and those that know me, know that I have nothing but full respect for women, but I just hate how fathers get dogged. My pops told me as a boy, that a Fathers job is thankless. He is supposed to provide, protect, and love regardless of how he's perceived in the house or by the children. I believe that statement now, more than ever.
It's like as soon as June comes around people, single moms and their defenders in particular. (And I'm generalizing) folks start straight DUMPING on men. "I'm the mother AND the father" "I was raised in a single parent home and I turned out perfect" blah blah blah...I looked At the video and that white chick and whoopie were REALLY getting offended at the thought that a woman CANT be a father to her child. Baby, you can't be mom AND dad (unless something is weird going on inside of you lol)
I just hate that Crews had to "defend" fatherhood. Shepard got what he was saying, the other two were just ready to attack because they felt he was coming at their PERSONAL situations. Kids need their mom and dad in their lives for balance. Hell, they just need loving male and female role models to help them balance their thoughts and values. Instead of agreeing with him and help him talk to the fathers out there in tv land, these women were on him from jump "well, my son can't be confident because I raised him as a single mother?" "I did just fine raising him by myself" "I HAD to be mom AND dad"

such selfish ways to think...
We as society in America have to do better
