Young men crave fathers and will accept any pseudo-paternal figure they can find.

Gangs provide what their mothers did not.


Great statement! I agree 100%. It has also become taboo to suggest that single-mother households are not ideal for raising children. Single mothers have gone from being ostracized to being placed on pedestals as models of courage and strength.

I agree, as well. And this former single mother agrees with what you say about single motherhood. (A divorce I did not want is what made me the single mother of 4 sons. Difficult for me, although I did the best I could, and tragic for the children.)
