Do people that criticize single parents think about the child(ren)'s welfare? I'm asking for myself because for all the critics of single parenthood, it seems like none of them think of the children. I'm all for the family unit (mother & father, plus children), but that's not possible in today's fallen world. Because we live in a broken world, children are born to single parents for whatever reason. Most times, the father leaves the family because he doesn't want the responsibility & the mother has to raise the child(ren) on her own. It's some people who are narrowminded enough to believe that a two parent home is best for children, even if one parent isn't pulling their weight. Let's get this straight: It's better for a child to grow up with two parents even though one parent is around, but not actively involved in the child's life? Miss me with that nonsense. It's children right now with two parents in the home, but one of them isn't helping with the children, so that child technically is in a single parent home even though the deadbeat is physically there. It's always best for a child to grow up in a single-parent home with a stable, responsible parent, no matter if society may say otherwise.
