Somehow, Slate published this: "Study found that about one-third of girls whose fathers left the home before they turned 6 ended up pregnant as teenagers, compared with just 5 percent of girls whose fathers were there throughout their childhood."

Im sure they're still couching it as deadbeat dads and how males are hurting their daughters.

"It’s worse to be raised by a single mother, even if you’re not poor."

"But daughters depend on dads as well. One study by Bruce Ellis of the University of Arizona found that about one-third of girls whose fathers left the home before they turned 6 ended up pregnant as teenagers, compared with just 5 percent of girls whose fathers were there throughout their childhood. This dramatic divide was narrowed a bit when Ellis controlled for parents’ socioeconomic background—but only by a few percentage points. The research on this topic suggests that girls raised by single mothers are less likely to be supervised, more likely to engage in early sex, and to end up pregnant compared with girls raised by their own married parents."

Fathers are oppressors enforcing patriarchy and limiting freedom of daughters and women. Hence low number of rapes. /s

Like all articles written by a trad-con concerning the matter of fatherless children, this one fails to point out some fundamental facts about parenthood and reproduction in our society. Those being that men who are unable and unwilling to become fathers are forced into parenthood through the denial of reproductive rights and fertility control. Additionally, and just as important, men's parenting rights are all but totally beholden to the good will of the mother.

This is no accident and this paradigm was created specifically to destroy fatherhood so it could be replaced by the state.

However, Mr Wilcox, as always with the trad-cons, refuses to see the whole picture and joins feminists in stating that the problem lies in "fathers who leave" or "fathers who don't marry up." Thus, enabling more enslavement of men.

The answer to the fatherless problem is parody of reproductive rights between men and women, fertility control for men and equal parenting post separation or post natal for men not married or in a live in relationship with the mothers.

Until this is realized both men and children will suffer unjustly.

Men should be required to pay child support even if they were raped, lied to about birth control, or are proven to not be the father at all. Because best interests of the child.

Oh it's a proven fact that kids do worse without a father in their lives? That threatens our female privilege. Better fight against shared custody laws whenever they come to a vote.
