It's bad for a child to be raised by a single parent, even by a man.

So yeah, you want to have kids, you need a mother to raise the kids.

Don't agree with it paying to continue the species.

I had wanted the family and kids thing, but not once I found out about the loaded gun to mens head that is this system. And now I wonder if I wanted it, or if the tribalism shoved down my throat made me think so

It's really about the support system you have in place, your kids can't just talk to you

This is something to consider even without the system.

You need backups for looking after them, it's not a single person job

In todays world it often is

Yeah well look where that gets the children

***in fucking prison***

I was raised by a single parent

It didn't get me in prison

yet

Although, I believe I was better off

Without a second parent

You're merely an exception to the case.

Well how can you know that? You don't know what it's like to have 2 parents

I've seen a lot of stuff in my life

There's research about how kids end up coming from single parent household.

And when you look at statistics single parents are a horrible idea

One of them was that often somebody who was raised by both parents tends to be more spoiled

and rude

Most of them criminals in prisons were raised by a single mom, so yeah.

Personal experience is nothing to base your views about stuff on.

There aren't enough single dad's to have any real data on them

It is not an indicator of general trends observed.

Well, based off of the data we have about single dads though, they are better than single mothers.

Yeah, the like 6 of them xD

6 of them?

anyone here live in california?

I was trying to make a joke about how few single father's exist

I'm here for the first time in my life if you wanna hang out

this is such a strange land

California is weird

Y'all don't even have straws

they do have some fucking bad ass cars though

Fair enough

I've seen like 20 lamborghinis since I've been here

California is the SJWland, yes?

mate, they've got badass cars here

Mate, you haven't seen badass cars until you went to Germany
