This week we talked about fatherhood. The importance of fatherhood is often over looked. Many people say that single parent and same sex marriage families are just as good as traditional families for children. However studies have shown that this is simply not true. The presence of both a father and a mother who lovingly and thoughtfully parent for their children's best interest is the best way to raise children. This isn't to say that it's 100% but studies show that this is true and that the children from these families are best off in the long run.
