FULL TITLE: Children have a stable home environment and perform better at school if their biological father lives with them (but the same benefits do not apply when a stepfather moves in)

Children are healthier and more likely to grow up with a good education and get a good job if their biological father lives with them, research reveals.

But when a stepfather moves into a family home there are no benefits for the children, the pioneering study of British families found.

The warning over the failure of stepfathers to help the families they bring up was drawn from records of the lives of more than 1,000 children born to single mothers at the turn of the Millennium.

OOW children have to deal with the devaluation of the mother since the father did not care enough about her to marry her. This also devalues the child.

Those whose parent is deceased does not have that psychological burden.

St. John Paul once said that the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.

Liberals also use this to define “white privilege” - an automatic leg up on darker people.

Unfortunately I did not choose well the first time but God did provide a good step-dad for my children.

I can see that. The divorced dad’s continued presence in the world would bear in the children’s minds.

We the taxpayers of course. If there’s a problem the libs have to jump in with a “study”. “It’s raining, we’re getting wet; well we’d better get a grant from the government to find out why”
