And how the topic of the absolute pandemic of absent fathers is somehow vastly avoided in decisions driving the future of this country.

How someone can abandon their kid and their mom is beyond me.

As Adam carolla has astutely pointed out, in this country smokers are shamed more than absent fathers.

This is supposed to be a positive day. Forget about the deadbeats.

Admitting that absent fathers is a significant problem in our society would be a big time blow to the Third Wave Feminism.

You don’t think the kids with absent fathers are thinking about them today? Breaks my heart. Some kids don’t have the privilege to just not think about their POS missing dad

Never knew mine, but based on what I have heard through the years, l’ve missed nothing. Became a success, including successful marriage despite it.

Today I celebrate myself and sorely missed loving grandparents.

Have a great day!

My father has basically not been around since I was 5. Sucks, but I had plenty of male influence around me to help me through some tough times. Worked hard, and turned out fine.

Maybe mom found a new boyfriend and kicked dad out of the house. It's now always the man's fault.

It's the welfare cliff.


It's better off being a single mother making under 30k because of all the benefits puts your net above someone making 60k.

Our system has made it profitable to be a part time worker and a single mother.


Not saying there aren't dead beat dads. But a lot of these women choose that life. And don't want no mans.

You still don’t just give up on being in your kid’s life.

Court has a say in this.

Or the dad has to work his arse off to pay child support. Again, welfare cliff. He's fricked while she rakes in the money fir just being single with a kid.

When’s the last time you were a woman? Pretty sure most women don’t want that. Who wants to be 100% emotionally, financially, spiritually and completely responsible for a child’s life without any help or time from the child’s father? You know nothing about this or women.

Why shouldn’t a guy pay to support his own child? There’s a lot more to raising a child than money. Most single parents aren’t even receiving enough child support.

There was is NO excuse for a guy not being involved in their child’s mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health.

Why don't you ask some of the men posting in these threads that are raising their kids on their own how much financial support they are receiving from the mom? 10 to 1 they're not getting a cent.

The court doesn't care that they're heavily slanted towards the females in these cases and obviously, neither do you.
