quote: Co-founder of the controversial Men's Rights Agency, Sue Price, told the inquiry despite the "maternal preference" of the Family Law Court in custody battles, statistics showed children were more likely to be abused, or even killed, when in the custody of their mothers. |
These "controversial" groups echo statistics that are found world wide..
quote: An Australian Institute of Health and Welfare report had found 42 per cent of substantiated abuse – including physical, emotional and sexual abuse – happened in single-female-parent families, she said. |
Over 50% here in Canada.
quote: The report said only 4 per cent of abuse occurred in single-male-parent families. |
Less than 2% here in Canada.
quote: The studies exposed the myth that most child abuse was perpetrated "by all these violent men out there". |
One by one the fem-nazis "myths" are being exposed as fraud. We have an entire culture built on these frauds, "myths" let alone a court systems...
Think of the damage to all these children in the world all the the sake of power. And we think Bush is bad, the amount of child killed or damaged mentally or other wise because of these "myths", fraud is staggering.
I continue to post this stuff simply to try and keep people aware of the "childrens" issues. While most percieve these issues as anti-female fluff. Thats in most to the media, the real issues here are the children and the harm being done to them, world wide by male hating fem-nazis.
I hope everyone takes a deep breath and thinks before you call a "male" for the child rights activists a whinner...
That attitude simply shows a lack of knowledge about the subject, let alone a shallow media driven thought process...
Chew on this one of awhile:
Kids also learn self-control while simply roughhousing with Dad. "These are mini practice sessions on self-regulation. If a kid gets out of hand, Dad stops it." says Wade Horn, assistant director of the Administration for Children and Families.
Fatherless boys seldom learn these limits. Dr. Popenoe notes that 60 percent of America's rapists, 72 percent of adolescent murderers and 70 percent of long-term prison inmates are fatherless.
Damage thier is no doubt about it, fatherless girls fair no differently...

Is it possible that most single parent families are single parent female families? That would explain 42% vs 4%.
But I agree with you here--maybe the statistics aren't as skewed in male favor, but "women are always better at raising children" is still a bit of a myth.

Women imo, tend to be either really good, or really terrible at raising children. Judging by my dad, in my earlier days, he was more of a "lead by example" guy, though he didn't encourage diversity whereas others including myself would.
Is it fair to say that, as the oldest of four brothers (18 (me), 16, 11 and 5), that I would be, like for like, better with kids than say my youngest brother when he grows up?
If so, I think the parents childhood background is also an important consideration. Power to the first born!

As Maggie Gallagher writes in her 1996 book, The Abolition of Marriage:
"The person most likely to abuse a child physically is a single mother. The person most likely to abuse a child sexually is the mother's boyfriend or second husband...Divorce, though usually portrayed as a protection against domestic violence, is far more frequently a contributing cause."
The only thing unusual in the sensational case of Andrea Yates is that the couple remained married. Most child abusers first eliminate the father through unilateral divorce or separation, whereupon they can abuse his children with impunity.
As the Heritage report confirms, the safest place for a child is an intact, two-parent home — that is, a home with a father in it. Children's natural protectors are their fathers. Even feminist Adrienne Burgess observes that "fathers have often played the protector role inside families." Removing the father is what exposes the children to danger.
Yet removing fathers is precisely what family court judges routinely do at the mere request of mothers, who file two-thirds to nine-tenths of divorces. Ironically, this is often effected with trumped-up charges of child abuse, though statistically biological fathers seldom abuse their children (6.5% of child murders, according to the DOJ study). Judges claim they remove the father, even when no evidence of abuse has occurred, to "err on the side of caution." In fact they are erring on the side of danger, and it is difficult to believe they do not realize it.
Dickens observed "the one great principle of the...law is to make business for itself." In this instance, family courts and child protective bureaucracies make business for themselves by eliminating the father from the home, thus creating the environment conducive to abused children. Appalling as it sounds, the conclusion seems inescapable that we have created a massive governmental machine staffed by officials with a vested professional interest in abused children.
This is a shocking statement, but it proceeds predictably from the logic inherent to all bureaucracies: to perpetuate the problem they ostensibly exist to address.
The logic is marvelously self-justifying and self-perpetuating, since by eliminating the father, government officials can then present themselves as the solution to the problem they themselves create. The more child abuse — whether by parents or even by the social work bureaucracies themselves — the more the proffered solution is to further expand the child abuse bureaucracy. Waxing indignant about a string of child deaths at the hands of social workers in the District of Columbia, federal judges and the Washington Post find solace in the D.C. government's solution: hire more social workers (and lawyers too for some unspecified reason). "Olivia Golden, the Child and Family Services' latest director...will use her increased budget to recruit more social workers and double the number of lawyers." Lawyers, not fathers, now protect children.
If we do not have the courage to tell the truth about who is abusing children and the role of government in permitting and even encouraging them to do it, then all our professed concern for children is mere posturing. We do no service to children or to public awareness by funding groups and programs with an interest in obscuring the truth and exacerbating the problem.

Having worked in prison and with young people in general for quite a few years I must say that I cannot remember more than a handful of boys or men in prison who had a decent father for a role model.

i dont get this whole issue about fathers wanting custody of their children... what father wants custody of his children? mothers are kind of forced to have it, especially since it's clear that mothers are the actual mothers of their children (the 'fathers' might actually not be without DNA test verification). so where are all these fathers rushing to take care of their kids?
