Why are sons are better off without fathers?
Men raised without fathers (and sometimes women) as well, tend to be more emotionally unstable and at a higher risk of problems of being incarcerated etc. I read the statistics somewhere a few years ago. I had a single mother living next door to me when I was a student at one rental place. One of her two young sons who was approximately 10 years old took it into his head to turn off our electricity occasionally as a joke. That then escalated into throwing mud over my car and staring at me aggressively. I went up to him and bunched my left hand in his shirt and lifted him up of the ground. With my right hand, I poked my finger into his cheek and said “If you ever mess with me again, I will break your jaw”. I never had any more problems with him. Boys in particular need a strong male image to respect.
