Sometimes traditions should be broken because they are outdated, archaic and just downright abusive.
So what’s America with out tradition ? Chicago?
What tradition? You'll have to be more specific.
Do people have the freedom to choose whether they follow a given tradition?
Of course, I was just asking you a question, again you dodge it like the coward you are
I dodge nothing. YOu ask about something as vague as "tradition", and now get pissy because someone doesn't answer with a Yes or No? lol
Exactly what traditions are you talking about?
There are a LOT of traditions in the country. You want to generalize and lump them all together?
it’s a family tradition.
Then it is a stupid tradition. If you can't specify a tradition, my answer stands.
Each individual decides which traditions they follow and which tradition they toss out.
Women should be at home taking care of the family that’s the only way you’re gonna keep America going
Oh, so women should not have career aspirations and goals beyond the home? Just negate their contributions so you don't have to do housework? lol
So nice of you to sacrifice other's freedom.
Of course the could, but if you country is full of single parents, stats show 77% of kids will end up breaking the law.
Got a link for that?
And what you are talking about is mostly the women abandoned by men or women running from abuse. Should those traditions be maintained?
By 1996, 70 percent of inmates in state juvenile detention centers serving long-term sentences were raised by single mothers. Seventy-two percent of juvenile murderers and 60 percent of rapists come from single-mother homes. Seventy percent of teenage births, dropouts, suicides, runaways, juvenile delinquents, and child murderers involve children raised by single mothers. Girls raised without fathers are more sexually promiscuous and more likely to end up divorced. A 1990 study by the Progressive Policy Institute showed that after controlling for single motherhood, the difference between black and white crime rates disappeared.
Various studies have come up with slightly different numbers, but all the figures are grim. According to the Index of Leading Cultural Indicators, children from single-parent families account for 63 percent of all youth suicides, 70 percent of all teenage pregnancies, 71 percent of all adolescent chemical/substance abuse, 80 percent of all prison inmates, and 90 percent of all homeless and runaway children.
A study cited in the Village Voice produced similar numbers. It found that children brought up in single-mother homes ‘are five times more likely to commit suicide, nine times more likely to drop out of high school, 10 times more likely to abuse chemical substances, 14 times more likely to commit rape (for the boys), 20 times more likely to end up in prison, and 32 times more likely to run away from home.’ Single motherhood is like a farm team for future criminals and social outcasts.
So no link, just more plagarism?
And there is a difference between your claim that 77% of kids from single parent homes will break the law, and stating that 70% of inmates at juvenile detention centers are from single parent homes.
And if you look at economic factors, being raised in a poor household will see almost the same percentages. Being poor is the problem more than having two parents.
And how do you plan to fix this? Will you force women to stay home? The reason 2 parent households do better is because there are 2 incomes, not because there are two parents.
And will you force women to stay in abusive situations, just to cut the number of single parent households?
10 million people a year are subjected to domestic violence every year. So it is not an isolated problem.
Domestic violence is a major issue in the U.S. and around the world, and many nonprofits work tirelessly to provide critical support and services to victims.

Even if the violence is only directed towards the adult, witnessing the violence has a profound effect on children.
And none of the above problems even touch on whether women are free to choose their own life, as men are. Are women not free in the US?
