Photo by @TomasVH. The saddest thing I've seen on a Father's Day: Soledad Leon and her three sons, aged 2 to 7, fill potholes and beg for change from passing cars in #Peru. Soledad's husband left her and the children three months ago. They haven't heard from him since. The family is reduced to this kind of work to survive. The UN entity working to empower women can be visited at http://www.unwomen.org . Photo taken while on assignment for @NatGeo. #documentary #nonfiction #FathersDay @VIIPhoto

Yep. This is what fathers day means to national geographic. Fuck men, the women need help!

An "emotional" or positive photo of a father with his son or daughter could have been used with the tag #fathersday. Instead a photo of a single mother and how to help empower women and a story about some asshole who left her is used. Where is the celebration in this photo? It breeds negativity towards men period, let alone on a father's day.

Thanks. I will never support this company now. Not that I did before, but it was previously just indiference. I'm going to need to make a list of all these companies I will not support and why.
