No dads?


None of the "bad" kids seem to have a dad around. Shocking I know but it does speak volumes about troubled kids (who turn into troubled adults). The stats look really bad for boys and girls growing up in single female headed homes. Those kids are more than twice as likely to be incarcerated, promiscuous, smoke, do drugs etc.

I'm always surprised when a man or woman leaves their family and acts like the kids will be ok. Newsflash, they won't. Unstable homes are where our criminals are from and they can ruin societies. They've already ruined whole cities.

I grew up with no dad and turned out fine. In my 30's college grad with my own home and no baby daddys never been on drugs or in jail. It depends on how involved the moms family is in the kids life from a young age. My family was very involved in my life and helped in the long run. That and four years of ROTC in high school. Heh.
