White people always push negative stereotypes on minorities. It's always been that way in America.
Even Native-Americans are tarred with the "alcoholic" stereotype, despite being outnumbered by white alcoholics by more than a million to one.
You don't see white men being stereotyped as child sex predators :beli:
in all fairness i thought there was somethign wrong with the way natives metabolized fire water?

Me and all my peers are there for our kids. But then again my motto is there's no prize for doing what you are supposed to be doing in the first place. You just do it.

The data doesn't say what people think it does, as it focuses on specifically on percentages of involvement as opposed to numbers. The stereotype is that there are more Black fathers in number that aren't around their children, so this doesn't help that. It would have even been better if they included percentages of how many fathers are and aren't involved by race. The ssn't help that.

However I think its extremely important to at least let the world know that when Black fathers ARE there, they are extremely involved. More so than any other race it seems.

why would you focus on numbers instead of percentages?

I want a psychological study on women who push men away during and after pregnancies. :hmm:
This is starting to become the main issue.

But it's no really the thing anymore for black men to NOT take care of their kids. That myth will always be there though.

Because it's an evasion used by white folks to deny their own guilt, even though they outnumber minorities by huge margins (welfare, crime, substance abuse, etc).
if you're going to compare statistics between races, in most cases it's better to compare by ratios precisely due to that reason. it gives a more precise picture.

Franklin ave.
This is lame. The usual stat heard is that 70% of black children live in fatherless homes. And from what I see in my own personal life, this stat actually seems to hold true. So for them to give us some lame stat that 67% of black dads that don't live with their children ''see them'' (whatever the fukk that means) at least once a month does nothing for me. . . I could give a fukk about the stats of other races in comparison. That's totally irrelevant.

We have to do better.

Women are held accountable for nothing when it comes to men being ran out of the family structure. Nothing.

It's almost like men are supposed to carry 100% of the responsibility of carrying the load of the relationship between the two parties.

Can you imagine a contract with one party able to cancel the contract for "emotional reasons", with the other party not being allowed to sue for breach of contract?

Most men WANT to be there for their families. They want to be with their wives and children. The women are the one's who don't want them there after a certain period. The leader of the household becomes a hindrance on the mommy and her fukking PET of an offspring.

Agreed. It actually makes situations worse in a lot of cases if we only simply focus on total numbers as opposed to proper ratios.

This is true.

IF there was a database of initial childcare and relationship post kid conversations.. the data would show that some men are backed into a horrible spot... to the point that if they were there... shyt would effect the kid even more negatively.
