Hushåll utan fäder

Larry Elder skriver på Townhall om vad som kan vara en av de största orsakerna till det ökande våldet i samhället: den stora andelen hushåll utan fäder:

Many studies show that the best predictor of violent crime in a community is not the race or economic status, but the proportion of households without fathers. Most juvenile and adult offenders come from homes without fathers. …

In his book ”My Father’s Face,” James Robison wrote about a chaplain in a federal penitentiary who decided to improve morale. He persuaded a greeting card company to supply him with Mother’s Day cards for the inmates. The prisoners enthusiastically sent each mom a card. Morale improved so dramatically that the chaplain decided to repeat the success on Father’s Day. The chaplain offered the cards to the inmates. But not one inmate sent a card to his father. Not one.

Detta om något talar för hur viktig ”kärnfamiljen” är. Barnen behöver både en mamma och en pappa. Att det ska vara så svårt att förstå!
