Family breakdown

Firstly, I said I have no problems with that structure, I’m a product of it myself. Although it seems like married people ought to work a bit harder at staying married as divorce is the chief destroyer of that.

I saw that.

I was just putting the kabosh on any sort of discussion that might try to parlay the statement I highlighted into a defense of alternative family structures.

Yup. Divorce is tremendously devastating to kids, and a huge contributor to those kids going on to experience some of the social ills I mentioned.

And divorce is certainly a divergence from the intact family structure that statistically produces the ideal results. And I would even go so far as to submit that we have become a divorce culture over recent decades. And we’re certainly reaping the results of that scourge in our younger generations today.

Liberals and Democrats have actively worked to destroy the family. Some of the whitewash bullshit being posted here by some members to cover that up is a load of dung.

Like all government control fanatics, socialists and communists and the rest, they want the state to replace the family.

It’s all New World Order agenda.
It targets family, nation state and freedom of speech/thought.

Nothing happens by chance.

Gotcha on that…

And there you go, we agree. And with the statistics on divorce, high as they are, they’re far more worrisome than two parents being of the same sex or whatever other family structure that some are opposing.

This happens in every culture; but here in the USA, it’s prevalent in the black community. No divorces, since there are too often, no marriages. Dad just jumps from one woman to another, and in his wake, leaves a trail of kids who never even knew who their father was.

That’s just terribly demeaning and broad brushing of an entire group of people Jim.

What we know from very good stat’s is that good and bad kids come from all types but the least at risk kids are those raised in a stable, religious, traditional family with a stay at home mom.

The further you get from that ideal the the greater the likelihood the kids become part of the problem rather than productive members of society.

I remember being nauseated back in the 70’s watching various shows where black men actually got up on stage bragging about all the women they had impregnated, all the little bastard kids they had produced, and how they did it all on the taxpayer’s dime.

Unfortunately as the “progressive left” gained more power it has become more and more prevalent across all races.

Over half of all kids today are born to single mom’s and half of those or more will have no physical or financial support from their fathers.

Parents of the same sex divorce too. Unmarried POSSLQs split up. Single mothers don’t have the father there, for whatever reason. And on and on. Your statement seems to indicate that divorce is unique to traditional families. Divorce is just another vector of family breakdown.

We do not agree. Once a couple divorces, they’ve joined the sad market basket of dysfunctional arrangements.

The further you get from the traditional, stable, two-married-parent household, the more likely kids of that arrangement will get caught up in social ills that plague our society.

It’s a statistical reality though. And he didn’t apply it to all blacks. He said it is prevalent. And it is.

And upward of 70% of black kids.

The divorce rate for gay couples is even higher than that for straight couples.

It’s simply true and rampant in the “Black Community”.

Shooting each other hardly constitutes a “community”

Most shootings occur between individuals closely related or known to one another from their own neighborhoods.

Yes, community applies.
