If you had a schizophrenic adult raising you, how do you think you would turn out?
"Kids raised by Single Fathers turn out alright. Kids raised by Single Mothers end up messed up."

Dads rule.
Single fathers are significantly wealthier than single mothers.
Not even close to being true. You miss the simple fact that the idiot, deadbeat fathers more than likely LEAVE the kids with their mothers. When the mother and child, who were abandoned, struggle, you criticize them. I don't have the stats and don't care enough to spend time looking them up, but I'm guessing that there are at least 10 times as many single mothers as single fathers (again, because deadbeat loser father took no responsibility and fled), therefore, the number of struggling single mothers IS higher, but I'll bet the percentages are similar. There are loser women and loser men. Sadly, the loser men can run away while the child is inside the mother, and yes, sometimes the mother who is left to deal with it is not capable.

It talks about the statistics. The big one is that more than half of kids raised by single moms are below the poverty line.
I knew I'd get a post like this. I'm gonna be a nice person and not say anything else.
Fathers are more likely to sternly discipline their children, and disciplined children (girls and boys) end up much better as adults because they understand rules, order, law, and why discipline is important.
Mothers don't discipline their children as much, and instead serve them as if they were still babies. As a result the children grow up to be babies and no understand rules, order, law, and aren't disciplined in anything and expect the world to serve them like their mother did.
Fathers vs Mothers. Fathers are way more important.

I would imagine it's far more than 10 times as many single mothers as single fathers, maybe even as much as 50.
The rest of what you say is right.
Single fathers only generally become single fathers if something tragic happens (mother dies) or they're actually really motivated to look after the child.
The mother doesn't have much of a choice either way, they have to do it whether they like it or not.

Classic.
--I have a strong opinion about a complex subject.
--I will start a thread trying to get people's thoughts about the complex subject.
--When people give opinions different than mine, I will get pissy, state my opinion, and act like everyone else is an idiot.
So, again, do you have any data from a study that controls for other factors?

Hey, this is Letsrun after all.
Without credible research and source material, as
noted above, your generalizations are speculative,
and they can and will be countered -- and defended --
by anecdotal examples over and over.
Fortunately or unfortunately, women remain the primary
care-givers, and thus bear the brunt of raising
kids in all kinds of bad situations and environments.
This is a great thread. Gets a lot of people excited, probably because they are morally f**ked up and they know I'm right but don't want to admit it.
If you really believe a nuclear family (FATHER, mother, children) isn't ideal for producing well balanced children, or at the very least a FATHER, then you probably have an excuse.
Its ok, if everyone is raised by a their mother civilization will collapse. Women SUCK at teaching children about real life.
Look at the mail on mothers day coming out of a prison. Bags and Bags of letters. Look at the mail coming out of a prison on father's day. Nothing.
Its very clear what the problem is and what the cause is.
I'm going to take a shot here - men don't have to be fathers. In fact, all of you letsrunners may all be fathers and not even know about it. If you are a woman, well, it's pretty obvious when you have a child. So there are going to be many women that have/raise children they never meant to have while there really aren't any fathers that are dads that don't want to be. Didn't crime go way down when abortion became legal and more available?
That crap about men being stricter is pretty much crap.

Getting WAY too obvious there, junior.
Your excuse is circumstantial.
Obviously a women will more likely raise her child if the father bugs out.
But thats not the point of the argument you idiot.
The point is kids raised by single mothers end up messed up mentaly. Kids raised by single fathers don't.
WHY? Thats what the thread is about, not WHY women get knocked up and try to raise a kid alone.
Unless your point is that the fathers raising the kids care more than the mothers...oh wait that proves my point and again you're an idiot.
Glory hole is an obvious troll, but the fact that he chose to troll this subject implies that he has real issues.
Did I make you mad?
