FactsAboutTheFatherless-01.jpg

Just stumbled upon this image and it got me thinking; today's society doesn't place much importance on traditional values. Moreover, they are shunned and seen as something bad, even as a way to enslave you. This sort of dogma is especially targeted at young women, as in, if you're a housewife, you've basically given up on life.

On the other side of the coin, the importance of a good father figure is impossible to measure. I grew up in a fatherless household and it definitely affected my mood, adherence to authority and my impulses. I always felt like there was nobody that could stop me and as you can imagine, this sort of thinking got me in a lot of trouble.

Now that I'm a bit older, I see why family is important. I see why you should respect your elders and why children who grow up in a real, traditional family do much better in life compared to others.

Did you have a father growing up? Do you see yourself respecting your parents more as you grow older? Lastly, have your antisocial impulses toned down as you matured?
 
A fatherless kid probably also has a mother that is a difficult person. If the mother was great she would null the effect of the absence of father, and tbh she would be able to find a great step-dad. I think that this narrative of the evil father that abandons kids is just misandry targeting older men. Defend yourselves from the misandry because in the coming decades things will get even harder.

Did you do any facts checks ? This looks exactly like one of those propaganda statistics.
 
My dad never left but it felt he was never there so it didn't affect who am I, on the other hand my mom was always there so is not the father, my mom always spent time cheking our homework what we where doing how we felt, she never let the TV educate us, she was in charge of education not TV or computer so there was no excuse for a mother that was working keeping the house and taking care of her kids she did all that and never compained, my point is, father could left mother could left at the end the education and time spent with the other father, education, values he or she share with you will indicate who you will be you could have both parents and still they don't care about you.
 
In this regards I feel very fortunate to be from a third world country. We may not have as much economic flexibility as first world people but we have less inner turmoil because we still adhere to our culture and traditions without trying to be too "progressive" and "modern".

Grew up in a traditional Asian family where dad was the bread earner and mom was the home maker. Didn't grew up with playstations or airpods and Iphones but still had a fulfilling childhood in a complete family.

Finding the right balance between modernity and traditionalism should be the social goal of every nation.
 
Where I am from, boys were taught to be tough. Not that BS kind of tough you get driving a 4x4 off-road or going for a few hours without Internet on your phone. I mean tough enough to go for two days without a single morsle of food. Tough enough get the crap beat out of you by three guys and still turn up for for work the next morning. Tough enough to walk three miles in the freezing himalayan borders to bury a fallen conrad you were carrying with your bare hands. Now? Kids these days thing being tough means having to peel and cut your own potatoes because the store was ought of precut chips. What went wrong? Is it the lack of any proper father figure - being over pampered by single mothers? Maybe. Maybe not. But one thing I do know is that this generation has yielded the biggest bunch of wingers, complainers and cry babies the world has probably ever seen. They get dumped by their girlfriends they turn into wet mops desinged to clean mscdonalds floors. They get fired from their job they bury their heads in their duvets for days to deal with the ‘depression’. They get yelled at by their boss they need 6 months of counselling to get over the ‘emotioanl baggage’. If I saw some some chump cry like this to my face about nothing I wouldn’t hesitate to slap till they don’t know what’s what and grow a pair. Not one second.
