If a child is without a MOM or a DAD together they suffer, sugar coat it any way you will, the children still suffer.

I doubt many men really think that a woman can't raise a child without them, but I've read that little girls grow up more centered and self confident if they have a father involved in their upbringing. And conversely, a boy grows up better having a mother in his life. All this does is support the idea that children need a mother and a father for best results, but that just makes common sense, I guess.

There's more to raising kids than feeding them and clothing them. They need a proper education (and I don't mean high school. I mean college and beyond), they need opportunities to travel and experience a variety of things, and they need a balance of male and female role models so that they can learn how to have a healthy relationship with both males and females. They also need to have people of various generations in their lives so that they can relate to people of all age groups.
Women may think they can do it on their own but the kids themselves are living proof in most cases that had they had both parents, they would have achieved a great deal more in life.
I have noticed that daughters of single mothers frequently end up single mothers at an early age. Children deserve better.

If you can't write a complete sentence and know when it is appropriate to use an apostrophe, you could probably use some help in raising children. When it comes time for you to help them with their English homework, I don't think you would be my first choice for help. I would be looking for dad.
Of course, it is better for a mother and father to raise a child together. And for all those single mothers out there that think they can do it on their own, they can. But, they can't do it as well as if there was a man around. You need both sexes to teach roles and to prevent the cycle that occurs when women bear bastard children out of wedlock. Then those children follow suit, and you then have generations of children being born out of wedlock.
Our society suffers because we have to then bear the burden of more crime, more taxes due to higher government cost of medicaid and WIC, etc. Find a good guy, marry him, then have children!

Please girl what man said that. Where i live its hard to find a man that wants to rise his kids. They help make familys then the leave and go to start another with someone else. They don't physically or finacially help most less raise their childern. 70 to 80 percent of the familys where i leave is only the kids and the moms. So for all the guys that say that come to the south. See all lf us proud single mothers not ony riseing kids on our own but rising the next generation of boys to be better men then they have had in there lives.

I don't know any that think that way, but I think it can go both ways. Some men are great with kids, and some men aren't. Some Women are great with kids, and some arent. There are some people that just don't need to have kids period, I saw a few examples of those today.

Because...
Nope. A lot of men think a woman CAN raise the kids without them.
Those who don't have probably been told so by a woman whose trying to keep them.

who thinks that?....not the guy who walked out my kids age 5 and 7 at the time 4 years ago never heard from him since I'm pretty sure he knew I'd be fine without him. MY dad never thought my mom needed him around either. A reasonible responsible man knows their kids need him just as much as a mom, so in a ideal world women should not be raising kids without the father around.

I don't think it's that so much as (some) men have a sense of responsiblity to the woman and his child. Good men are taught to not abandon their families, even after a divorce.

Some men-actually a lot of them- think that women are helpless without them. They think that without men, us women will never get anywhere in life.
