I'm sick of these MSM stories that never even mention a father. They are written as if his partition in the son's life is completely irrelevant. Most fathers would be highly suspicious of a grown man showing so much personal interest in their son, but it seems the people covering these stories are either unaware or uninterested in the dad's role in their son's life.
Sandusky, as most pedophile predators, prey on the vulnerable. Meaning, the boys who don't have an angry father who would likely beat him senseless. This is an important part of the story, but apparently, not to the press who continue to believe fathers can be easily replaced by “father figures”.
“Where the f**k is DAD?!?!”
Gone. As were most of the fathers of these kids. The Second Mile was specifically setup to service kids of dysfunctional families. Why do you think this went on for so long? These kids were at risk to begin with.
Oh give me a frickin break. The “dad” was nothing more than a sperm donor, drug addict, deadbeat, out spreading his wild oats in our sick sex crazed society.
Right where is “dad”. “Dad” is often one who has left to “find himself” or otherwise. When “dad” does not have time or desire to take a part in a son’s life, that son misses an important relationship in his life.
I wonder why the mother only had 1 phone call. Why was she willing to do nothing about it?
Seems no one is willing to stand up. So, you see why that child is afraid to say “no”. He has no one to help him - they are too busy allowing predators to practice their behavior - including many judges who see nothing wrong with “love” between a child and an adult man.
Makes me sick.
(Way t’screw up a perfectly good rant, TCM...ya’ idjit)
Ah, you mean the government. Government has waged a war against personal responsibility for half a century now. And after the culmination of that death, you realize that 'DAD' can't be held responsible either.
Re the absence of fathers in these child molestation cases:
These days, a “single mom” is simply a woman who chose not to obligate the father of her children by demanding marriage and commitment. And there’s no stigma attached.
Long time ago, there were “divorced moms” and “widowed moms” and not much else. Pregnant single women gave up their children for adoption.
Indeed, where are the fathers?
Clearly, Sandusky sought out fatherless children. I found it interesting that all these boys said the contact with Sandusky started during the second year in the Second Mile program. Sandusky carefully scoped these boys out. He took them pretty much everywhere with him, even to out of state bowl games.
The whole thing is so sick.
