Fatherless homes just happen
the studies, while not perfect do give us a very good idea on the conclusions
The left has a solution; the right wing doesn't like it, Because the poor may benefit under our form of Capitalism.Free Contraceptives to Address, this Specific, right wing concern!Should we make divorce illegal? Only provide benefits to married mothers? What?So says Mike Rowe.
All we have to do is look around to see it. Is it because Women's Lib has caused the rise of single-parent/women homes? Or, and thisi may be reaching, because we've become a society of self-gratification? Get it when you can and don't worry about the results?
Here are some facts about fatherless homes:
• 63 percent of youth suicides are from fatherless homes — five times the average. (US Dept. Of Health/Census)
• 90 percent of all homeless and runaway children are from fatherless homes — 32 times the average.
• 85 percent of all children who show behavior disorders come from fatherless homes — 20 times the average. (Center for Disease Control)
• 80 percent of rapists with anger problems come from fatherless homes — 14 times the average. (Justice & Behavior, Vol 14, p. 403-26)
• 71 percent of all high school dropouts come from fatherless homes — nine times the average. (National Principals Association Report)
• 43 percent of U.S. children live without their father [US Department of Census]
What are your thoughts? Is he right?

How about we not pay teenage girls to become unwed mothers? That is a very poor career choice with inevitably bad outcomes for the children.
Of course you pose a completely ineffective remedy. Paying girls to have babies is not going to be addressed by birth control.
The left has a solution
The left is not the solution - The Left is the problem i think i got it right, the first time.The left has a solution
When that thought crossed your mind, it must have been a long and lonely journey. Seriously dude - if I wanted to commit suicide I'd climb your ego and jump down to your IQ
Thank you for honestly revealing your true bigoted colors. It's a refreshing departure from your pseudo intellectual horseshit that you think makes you sound credible .After this, everything that you say is that much more questionable.He also endorsed ex gay therapy as not being unethical.
Santinover is another biased anti gay bigot:
Re: He also endorsed ex gay therapy as not being unethical.
Yes - this is true and your point is ???? Is it unethical to treat junkies and crackheads ??? You think Faggots are any different ???
Re: Santinover - He is a Bible Thumping hell and brimstone baravaider- he is no more prejudiced to the right than the assholes you cited that hide behind the cloaks of "scholarly wizards"
Except that the studies that I presented are not trying to show anything is false. They are saying that it is a FACT that children of gays are doing as well as children of heterosexuals.There is no such thing as an impartial study that proves what is false - the only way to prove that Black is white or that 2+2=5 is to fudge the results or lie .
And where the fuck is this "study"The New York Times and the media are widely reporting the results of a new study of 500 children raised by same-sex couples. Researchers are aghast that such a shoddy piece of work, which is based on a convenience sample of parents who volunteered to be surveyed, and which relies solely on these parents’ reports to determine child well-being, should have been published in a reputable peer-reviewed journal. The author is facing a petition and statement signed by hundreds of reputable academics questioning his moral character and scientific integrity, and the editor of the journal who published such a thing faces similar attacks and enquiries about whether the peer-review process was compromised.
Link God damned it ! LINK! How the fuck am I supposed to respond to this otherwise. In the absence of documentation, I can only conclude that you're making this shit up, quoting questionable sources that you want to concealBullshit, unsubstantiated opinions.New Study: No Difference Between Gay & Straight Adoptive Parents http://www.edgemedianetwork.com/news/family/147523/new_study:_no_difference_between_gay_&_straight_adoptive_parentsRegnerus who you're defending is claiming to be harmful
And he is meritorious --- I only have a masters in a relative discipline, no phD but he was never attacked untill contradicted Big Brothers agenda ... suspicous don't you think ?
I'm short on time as I am going to an affair in a short while so can't get too involved .... try googling Nicholas Cummings, former President of the APA, Dr. Rogers Wright, Jeffrey Satinover, Jenny La Barbera .... there are others but thats off the top of my head ... you do understand the word 'schtick' - nuff said on that matter .

A recently released study by the Williams Institute confirms there is no difference in the behavioral outcomes of adopted children raised in same-sex households when compared to those raised by heterosexual couples.
"Parents’ sexual orientation is not related to children’s emotional and behavioral outcomes," confirms Williams Visiting Scholar Abbie Goldberg, who co-authored the study with JuliAnna Z. Smith of the University of Massachusetts. A national think tank at University of California, Los Angeles Law, the Williams Institute conducts independent research relating to sexual orientation, gender identity law, and public policy.
TFhe study, "Predictors of Psychological Adjustment in Early Placed Adopted Children With Lesbian, Gay, and Heterosexual Parents," analyzed 120 two-parent adoptive families, comprising of 40 same-sex female couples, 35 same-sex male, and 45 different-sex couples, looking at aspects of the pre- and post-adoptive developments of the children.
or all couples, the child was under 1.5 years of age, and was the first and only child adopted. The findings are consistent with an emerging body of research showing that parents’ sexual orientation are not related to children’s emotional and behavioral outcomes, and the Williams Institute study is unique in that it is longitudinal - i.e. follows couples over time - and includes adopted children, as well as includes three types of parents: gay, lesbian, and heterosexual (Goldberg explains how past same-sex parent studies tended to focus on lesbian parents).
Here is more:
In a project launched last month, a team at Columbia Law School has collected on one website the abstracts of all peer-reviewed studies that have addressed this question since 1980 so that anyone can examine the research directly, and not rely on talking heads or potential groupthink. Even when we might not agree with a study’s conclusions—with how a researcher interpreted the data—we still included it if it went through peer review and was relevant to the topic at hand. Peer review, of course, isn’t perfect, but it’s one of the best ways the world has to ensure that research conclusions are at least the product of good-faith efforts to get at the truth.
Even the notion that some try to put forth, that there are no good studies is wrong...the studies, while not perfect do give us a very good idea on the conclusions and that is that gay homes are not better nor worse.The Columbia project is the largest collection of peer-reviewed scholarship on gay parenting to date. What does it show? We found 71 studies concluding that kids with gay parents fare no worse than others and only four concluding that they had problems. But those four studies all suffered from the same gross limitation: The children with gay parents were lumped in with children of family breakup, a cohort known to face higher risks linked to the trauma of family dissolution.
Here is a link to all the studies

Re: "Predictors of Psychological Adjustment in Early Placed Adopted Children With Lesbian, Gay, and Heterosexual Parents" conducted by the Williams Institute. Williams Institute is a left wing think tank hosted at UCLA, a pc controlled socialist fascist 'school' devoted to indoctrination of young people and dissemination of 'data' favorable to their causes. They NEVER EVER EVER come up with conclusion based studies that contradict the dictates of Big Brother. Their studies are the product of deliberate misinformation campaigns by Gay activists to bring forward particular, pre-arranged outcomes, an approach that ignores scientific objectivity.
Their so called "peer reviewed" studies, when they are labeled as such are reviewed by left leaning politicized peers. They lack even the slightest hint to OBJECTIVITY
Objectivity is a basic philosophical concept, related to reality and truth. Objectivity means the state or quality of being true even outside of a subject's individual biases, interpretations, feelings, and imaginings. Scientific Objectivity is a value that informs how scientific studies are conducted and how scientific truths are arrived at. It is the idea that scientists, in attempting to uncover truths about the natural world, must aspire to eliminate personal biases, emotional involvement, etc ...
Try trashing this:
The Australian Study of Child Health in Same-Sex Families is the world’s largest attempt to study how children raised by same-sex couples compare to children raised by heterosexual couples. According to a preliminary report on the study of 500 children across the country of Australia, these young people are not only thriving, but also have higher rates of family cohesion than other families:
An interim report found there was no statistical difference between children of same-sex couples and the rest of the population on indicators including self-esteem, emotional behaviour and the amount of time spent with parents.
However, children of same-sex couples scored higher than the national average for overall health and family cohesion, measuring how well a family gets along. World’s Largest Study Of Same-Sex Parenting Finds That Children Are Thriving
Children raised by same-sex couples appear to do as well as those raised by parents of both sexes, suggests an international research review that challenges the long-ingrained belief that children need male and female parents for healthy adjustment.
"It's more about the quality of the parenting than the gender of the parents," says Judith Stacey of New York University, co-author of the comprehensive review. It will be published Friday in the Journal of Marriage and Family. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/health/2010-01-21-parentgender21_ST_N.htm

Re: World’s Largest Study Of Same-Sex Parenting Finds That Children Are Thriving
Simon Crouch, director of this project and his co conspirators readily admit that they actively and personally recruited participants from Gay Pride marches and other LGBT events, indicating an activist mindset. Participants were not randomly chosen as is the case with all pro queer "RESEARCH" [lol] you have submitted.
It also relied heavily on 'self reporting' the test subjects basically evaluated themselves in many cases - think about that for a moment
Simon Crouch in an interview with a gay media outletstated that “His decision to conduct the study was prompted by politics"
They are saying that it is a FACT that children of gays are doing as well as children of heterosexuals.

Now you’re just playing silly games . Whatever respect I might have had for you is greatly diminished
Spare me the ridiculous, patronizing lies.
I am an honest man, and you have made it clear that you have nothing but the most extreme contempt for honesty.
I am a man with religious faith, and you have made it clear that you have nothing but the most extreme contempt for religious faith.
I hold to basic standards of morality and decency, and you have made it clear that you have nothing but extreme contempt for such standards.
There is nothing about me that you would respect, and to be respected by such immoral, evil subhuman filth as you would be an insult.
The only way you would respect me would be for me to be a sexually-perverted, mentally-diseased, morally-degenerate scumbag such as yourself.
lol. only the right wing thinks it is that simple. why is there any need for social services in alleged, Right to Work States?This is old news, I high and ever increasing percentage of American mothers are married to the state. If you don't promote it (subsidize it) than you must incarcerated it.
As long as adult Americans are bailed out for their poor choices by the state this trend will continue to grow.
