CapitalismThe fact that there is a new category in the card making industry for Father's Day cards for mothers says it all.

Yall same nikkas will turn around and bash step fathers though 
The whole Anti-vax thing was debunked a few years ago and the guy got banned from research because he faked all that data, but she was at the forefront of that movement. She is said to have indirectly maybe led to the deaths of a few people.She's on that anti-vaccine bullshyt too?
Some people need their fathers in their life as guidance, man. A lot of cats are damaged because their father was absent. Father your sons/daughters breh.
My pops and my mom were both in my life but we've never kicked knowledge or anything like that. They didn't "raise" me per se. Everything I learned about life was from experiences, music, literature and stuff. They jes fed and sheltered me. I can't think of time where I actually sat down and had a conversation with them. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything or losing anything by not having a strong relationship with them but I appreciate them though.

only reason kids of single moms turn out bad is because most single moms are broke
No. Theres a nuance here.Yall same nikkas will turn around and bash step fathers though
Dudes should be WEARY of wifing girls who have kids. its about protection. Its not a blanket statement.
We're pretty extreme in sharing opinions and wisdom and joke around a lot, but its all in earnest that we try and educate each other on certain pitfalls.
I want to list a million reasons why a father is needed for BOTH boys and girls but as for right now I am too tired.
Lets just say a father provides stability/balance to a kids life. A mother can only nurture but a father is who installs his "laws" into a child whether it be positive or negative.
When I mean "laws" I mean ideas, influence, and also strictness/discipline which is important.

Thats the thing though, you dont have anything to compare NOT having them in your life.
This isn't to say everyone with two parents is going to be perfect, but to ignore the role that they do have is insane. Even TWO parents (of same sex couples) may be better than one.
America is entering a social decline.defend fatherhood
I didn't realize that was something that needed defending. What is going on out here?
Not true. Even with the proper resources, not having a consistent father figure will be detrimental regardless of what your socioeconomic status is. The Sandy Hook shooter is an example of that.
We've already entered it. Boys winning Prom Queen, gender neutral parenting with little boys dressing like Tinkerbell, etc.

I thought they all made good points, but there were generalizations going around from everyone. A woman can raise amazing children on her own, just as a man can raise amazing children on his own. But having two loving parents - be it a straight or gay couple according to research - is the most effective way to raise a child.
Ultimately the roles of fathers and mothers are social constructs. Women aren't born mothers, they're taught how to be mothers by society. If you take a girl, lock her in a cage for 20 years with no interaction with other humans outside of giving her food...then give her a baby she's not going to know what to do with it. More than likely she'll kill it out of fear. The point being that these roles are learned.
I think it's a good idea for children to have male and female figures in their lives, regardless of whether it's a parent. Some boys learn how to "be a man" from their grandpa. Some girls learn how to "be a woman" from their aunt. Ultimately the goal should be to raise your child with love. A woman might not know the best advice on how to wear a suit, or a man might not know the best way to handle your time of the month...but those things pale in comparison to teaching a child how to be a hard worker, compassionate, fair, honest, etc...and a loving parent can teach all those things whether they're a man or a woman.
Ultimately we as men can only focus on our role. I plan on being the best father I can be, because I think it's important. And I would only marry a woman interested in being the best mother she can be, because she thinks it's important. The fact that most of us are black men makes this even more important brehs. Don't be another statistic. Raise your kids. Teach your kids. Feed your kids. Love your kids. You won't get a trophy, that's shyt you're supposed to do. That's what being a man is about.

Both my older sisters were raised by a single mother(though my mother got married) and they turned out okay. Though my second oldest sister who is 21 is dating a guy in his 40's...
Me thinks she is looking for father figure. Even though both me and her keep in contact with our father. My oldest sister is dating a guy around her age. Both are college educated though and my oldest sister has a marketing career. To me single motherhood doesn't always mean kids will turn out bad; but they do need a father.
