[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1686556, member: 14585"] I am sure many can express the importance of Fathers better than me, but I will try to express it with statistics of intact 2 parent families from the Institute for Family Studies. 33% of black males are convicted felons. 67% of black males incarcerated are from single parent homes. White males from single parent homes are 28% more likely to be incarcerated by age 30 than black males from intact 2 parent families. The odds of blacks raised by their own 2 parents graduating from college is 68% higher than blacks from single parent households. In white families, children from 2 parent homes graduate college at twice the rate of white children from single parent homes. And the graduation rate by black women from 2 parent homes is 28% higher than white women from single parent households. The news media and politicians seem to want to point to systemic racism for every problem in society. But I believe the evidence points squarely to 50 years of a decrease in family values and the devaluation of the role of fathers in families as the root cause. No matter the race, young adults raised in a stable home with their own father and mother are significantly more likely to prosper and contribute positively to society. [/QUOTE]
