Not exactly the best venue to talk about a ‘lack of family structure’, given that the Palins do have a traditional family: dad who works (while having time for his family and other leisurely activities), mother who also works (whilst still having time for her family and other leisurely activities), and children (the oldest now serving in the military, with the oldest daughter now about to start a family of her own, with the support of her parents, and the other three children).

I could see your point if Sarah Palin had absolutely nothing to do in her family life, sacrificing all of the time for public office...but that’s not the case. By a long shot.

To try and infer that Dr. Dobson supports teenage pregnancy and doesn’t support traditional families from this statement is silly. He’s praising the Palins for doing the right thing in a tough situation.

“mother who also works (whilst still having time for her family and other leisurely activities)”

I didn’t intend for my post to be about Mrs. Palin, but since you brought it up, we obviously have different definitions of “traditional family” if you believe that it is traditional for a married mother to have any other PRIMARY focus than the raising of her family.
