Fathers Escape Blame

If anyone doubts that it’s still males who wield the power, please note that in the recent flurries over prosecuting drug-abusing pregnant women and forcing drug-abusing women to use Norplant, not one word was said about the effects of drug-abusing fathers and not one word was said about curbing the males who impregnated those women.

If one ponders the misery that’s been caused in the history of the human race by fathers who did not meet their responsibilities, it staggers the mind. Think about it. In protecting children from the sins of their parents, let’s make fathers accountable too.
