Sohh why is the nuclear family held up as the "gold standard" or natural order when its a recent invention?

Black Self-Sufficiency

"Less Poverty, Less Prison, More College: What Two Parents Mean For Black and White Children"​



Highlights​

  1. Children are significantly more likely to avoid poverty and prison, and to graduate from college, if they are raised in an intact two-parent family.
  2. From poverty to college graduation to incarceration, black children and young adults from two-parent families are more likely to be flourishing than their white peers from single-parent families.
  3. On average, black young adults from families headed by their mother and father are more likely to be flourishing educationally than black young adults from non-intact homes.
Princeton University sociology professor Sara McClanahan summarized the social scientific consensus about the importance of family structure for children with her colleague Gary Sandefur in this passage from their magisterial 1992 book, Growing Up with A Single Parent. In recent years, many other scholars have come to similar conclusions, from Paul Amato at Penn State to Isabel Sawhill at the Brookings Institution to Melanie Wasserman at UCLA. The consensus view has been that children are more likely to flourish in an intact, two-parent family, compared to children in single-parent or stepfamilies.

Cause it's really only been the tradition for cacs :manny:

Everybody else has lived successfully within extended families and in multi-generational households/communities

Yet time and time again, the decline of the nuclear family is tied to many of the issues we see on the daily

Crime, LGBT existence, and poverty but the same individuals would likely be under communal living had they been born outside of europe centuries before

So what gives? :jbhmm:
That's not true either.


Women that weren't working were rich. Most people did not live like that. This image of a woman sitting at home watching soap operas all day is new and it was invented to sell shyt like toasters, washing machines, vacuum cleaners etc. Through much of human history EVERYONE worked. Most people lived on farms and anyone who has ever set foot on a farm knows that as soon as you're old enough to do *something* you're expected to do that.

Chase U
so perhaps the thread should be about those other aspects.
I think this thread was made as a response to this:

Trump said he would also push Congress to pass laws establishing male and female as the only federally recognized genders, to be assigned at birth; promote school education focused on the traditional nuclear family; and defund schools whose staff members discuss gender identity with students.

Not everyone wants to live with their parents and extended family. I like my space, and my privacy. I would not want to live with my parents, or other adults other than my wife. Kids need two parent households, and other adults don’t replace your mother and father. It also helps shape your view of relationships. If you never saw a man taking care of your mother, you’re probably the type if a woman asks you to lift something heavy, you say, “What would you do if I wasn’t here? Or, “What you gonna do for me?” A woman raised that way will always challenge what you say, for the heck of it. Can people grow and evolve? Sure, but never date expecting someone to change.

And nuclear families are working just fine for everyone else as far as both parents being in the home.

I bet you a Christian. :wow:

I see this nikka still trying to vilify Christians because he gleefully went across the water and shot/killed innocent folks for the sake of that white boy..... He don't wanna look at GOD in the face right now.....

Black families would benefit from abandoning some aspects from the nuclear family stance,



We need to promote more group economics

We should be purchasing property with siblings / cousins

If your mom /dad/ or parents are paying rent

And your cousin’s mom/dad or parents are paying rent

Come together buy a multi family house build equity

That has nothing to do with a nuclear family.

Nuclear family = heterosexual married couple raising a child/children.
