Intact families including a Dad who is present have an advantage they dont even realize.
When taking sons camping or fishing, if they’d only invite that lonely boy in class without a dad to come along & share the fun, it could change that kid’s whole life.
I was a fatherless kid with a troubled mom myself, always inviting myself over to other kids’ houses.
The fact that their parents never kicked me out is what saved me.
While your proposal has merit; no way in today’s world am I taking someone’s else’s kid “camping” unless one of their parental units goes with.
