“Without doubt, single parenting is a disease. It is a disease that successive governments have allowed to come to life. Whilst there are some good single parents, you have to accept the majority are nothing but scummy blaggers who have chosen this path for an easy-life. The lazy single-parents are no role model for their children. They sit around on their backsides and do nothing. There is no incentive for a child if they see their main custodian is nothing more than a lazy seat warmer, naturally they are going to follow suit.”

“Mom and Dad said f@ck having a family.
We are the future.
Pray for these children.
“I’m beyond upset actually I feel cold because it seems like I finally understood what my father always told me.There is no more familys.Everyone said fuck family.People are just having kids with numerous people and not thinking about there actions and it’s ineverable consequences.Just analize the movements that sprung out the “fuck having a family” movement.
“1.Single mothers.(well we can fuck and have kids but why get married…he/she does not need a father figure I’m strong enough to be the father and the mother.)
“2.Independent women(well daddy aint gonna help/I don’t want your father around…I can raise a kid by myself so I don’t need a man for nothing…who said males need to be part of my life except when I need him my kids don’t need a male figure.
. . .”

“We that have married parents are less likely to live in poverty and forced to eat government cheese. We have more opportunities, our parents are more involved with us, and we are free to chase our hopes and dreams for our lives. We have two parents to go to, one to comfort us when the other dies. We have the right model on which to make our own choices.”

“I am looking to take out a full page ad in a local newspaper. I am seeking your help in composing a simple but powerful message. . . .The facts that must be included are
1. Children need both parents
2. 75% of children who grow up in single households have developmental problems–jail, school drop out, relationship issues, criminal activity.
A source that I can back up that claim with.”

“Statistics show that children raised in single-parent homes, whether by a mother or father, have a more difficult life. They have confusion and resentment and behavior problems.”
