You are very correct. If there is both a Mom and Dad... Mom is portrayed as the more intelligent, holding it together in spite of Dad. For example, in the cartoon, “Calliou”... Mom has the full time job and Dad stays home with the kids. Okay... I understand that is done in families BUT the Dad is portrayed as “wishy washy”, weak and way more emotional than the Mom. “Johnny Test” is another example. Dad wears dish washing gloves, stays home and Mom is the one is goes off to work in a business suit. Dad is of lower intelligence and Mom is obviously brilliant. The message, in my opinion, weakens the Father’s role in the family rather than elevates a working Mother’s role. Personally, I like the cartoon, “Little Bill” since it shows both parents involved with the children and they are intelligent, respectful and emphasize right from wrong. Plus, it brings in a grandmother figure who is loving, kind, and also involved. IMHO.
Satan’s main enemy, besides the Church, is the family, the first human institution created by God.
The father was created as the head of the family, and the left, doing their “father’s” bidding, seeks to destroy him and the concept of fatherhood.
