America has a Major Daddy Problem

By Published on September 4, 2015

America has a daddy problem – she needs Dad again, physical dads and spiritual dads.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 43 percent of U.S. children live without their fathers. The consequences have been devastating. The stats don’t lie. Here are just a few:

  • Ninety percent of homeless and runaway children are from fatherless homes (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Census Bureau).
  • Eighty percent of rapists motivated with displaced anger come from fatherless homes (Criminal Justice & Behaviour, Vol. 14, pp. 403-26, 1978).
  • Sixty-three percent of youth suicides involve individuals from fatherless homes (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Census Bureau).
