I'm quite serious, though you characterized it as a war, not me.  It's simply true that fathers are rarely portrayed positively.

I reckon ye are all blowing Obama's speech way out of proportion and reading things into it that are not there to be quite honest. He was just trying to say that all other social factors should not impact a child's education provided the schooling systems are up to scratch...aint nothing wrong with that.

I do however agree with you that fathers never get as much credit as they deserve and get royally shafted when it comes to custody battles and so on.

That's what I was going for Braddock, not a poke at Obama.  There's plenty of other reasons to not vote for him.

I think its bullshit that the media says that a child needs a father in order to be raised right.  Thats my opinion of how fatherhood is portrayed in the media.

It's like everything else, different people react differently to different scenarios. I know a girl who was raised with no father at home and she's one of the most well adjusted people I know, another girl I know had the same kind of upbringing and is action packed with issues.

Ah so that's where this is rooted.  No one takes any credit away from your mother to give good fathers what is due them.  Props to her and all single mothers.

You can't grow up without a mom and dad. It's science.

Teachers never helped anybody.
