Reuniting Fathers With Their Families
By Stuart A. Miller and Rich Zubaty
Excerpts from Dec., 1995 Washington Times article:
85% of prisoners, 78% of high school dropouts, 82% of teenage girls
who become pregnant, the majority of drug and alcohol abusers - all
come from single-mother-headed households. Less than 1% of any of these
categories come from single-father-headed households. This
seems to indicate that the problems children encounter are not related
to single- parent households, but are related specifically to
single-mother-headed households.
Social research data reveal that our blind reliance only on the nurturing value of mothers is inadequate and misplaced.
According to the National Center for Health Statistics, a child living
with his/her divorced mother, compared to a child living with both
parents, is "375% more likely to need professional treatment for
emotional or behavioral problems and is almost twice as likely to
repeat a grade of school, is more likely to suffer chronic asthma,
frequent headaches, and/or bedwetting, develop a stammer or speech
defect, suffer from anxiety or depression, and be diagnosed as
hyperactive.
The data show that placing children only with mothers is likely to be detrimental to children and society,
so why do we continue public policies favoring sole-mother-placement?
Have we become so paternalistic toward women that it anesthetizes our
common sense?
The single-mother-headed-household must go the
way of the slum high-rise dwelling. Both are human disaster zones. Both
are exalted attempts at social engineering that ignore God's blueprint
for human society. What is needed? Our Father in heaven and our fathers
here on earth - as well as a society that values them, includes them, and encourages their involvement in their families.

Welfare Reform -- No Room for Daddy?
Welfare reform proposals made by AFC to the federal government. Available in short and long form on the AFC Website
Custody: The father should be the placement of first choice if the mother applies for AFDC. ... The child should be placed in a welfare situation with the mother only if the father declines custody or proves unfit.
Accountability: Recipients of AFDC benefits should face some form of
accountability for how those benefits are spent. AFDC benefits should
accrue to the benefit of the children, as should financial child
support payments. ... Complaints
are often heard of mothers using AFDC payments to purchase crack or
alcohol while her relatives care for the children. ...
Inability to pay financial child support: Due to unemployment or
underemployment, many obligors fall behind in financial child support
payments. Census data, based on mother self-reporting, indicates that
66% of obligors who have been ordered to pay support and who fail to do
so simply cannot pay. Giving those obligors preference at employment
agencies enhances the possibility that they will resume support
payments.

"...On November, 23, 1996, the AMERICAN FATHERS COALITION planned to place the Casket of Fatherhood on the steps of the Supreme Court. But the guy who was supposed to bring the casket was behind in his child support. A judge took all his money and threw him in jail. ..."

And you really wonder who gets raped in family court? Or whether rape is the appropriate term?
