Single Father Households Do Vastly Better Than Single Mother — Here’s the Real Reason Why

https://medium.com/the-knowledge-of-freedom/single-father-households-do-vastly-better-than-single-mother-heres-the-real-reason-why-8a7fd7c5611d

For example, studies have found that children that from single-mother households are 5 times more likely to commit suicide than children from both unbroken households and single-father households, 9 times more likely to drop out of high school, 10 times more likely to abuse chemical substances, 14 times more likely to commit rape, 20 times more likely to end up in prison and 32 times more likely to run away from home.

The list does not stop there, single-mother households also account for 70% of all teen pregnancies, 70% of all child murders, and they account for the majority of filicide cases, which means yes, a child living in a single-mother household is the most likely to be murdered by their parent.

Have they adjusted for percentage?

Because there are far more single mom households than single dad ones, so if you wanted to make a case for something, you could easily make it look like single mom households fared worse by sheer numbers alone.

FWIW, I could not read the whole article at the site to find out, as it requires a sign in to read it.

Men’s ability to establish order and good conduct are why they do better as single patents. Young boys learn to overpower their mom at young ages, so she quickly loses control of them.
