Who is tired of all the dead beat dads? Let me see those hands!
Who out there is even more tired of hearing about the dead beat dad "epidemic?"
Yeah, me too.
I'm not sure when it started exactly, but the dead beat parent is almost automatically assumed to be the male figure of the parent-child relationship, sometimes it even boils down to the male-female relationship. There are SOME of you ("some" meaning not all) single mothers, who bash a man's ability to effectively raise the child(ren) you share together, simply due to the fact that HE doesn't want anything to do with YOU! Why is that? I mean, I know several fathers who are phenomenal at what they do...pause...and the scariest part of that characteristic is...they're only going to get better at the whole parenting thing.
