BartzNo matter what your political views are..
No child deserves to be raised without a father.
Hazelnoot@iamsambarton hard disagree - growing up without a father is better than growing up with a bad one.
Someone with views like Charlie Kirk would at best indoctrinate his children, and probably abuse them as well. Can you imagine being a daughter to someone who goes on stage and talks about how women should have less rights and be subservient to their husbands? Imagine the psychological damage that happen if you told your dad about your dream to be an astronaut, and his response was that you should forget about space and think about having kids instead.
That's the kind of thing that fucks you up for life.

@hazelnoot are you really saying is a good thing he was publicly killed in front of his wife and children?
@iamsambarton I didn't say that at all. I'm responding directly to what you said in the OP, which is:
No matter what your political views are..No child deserves to be raised without a father.

@hazelnoot did you grow up with a father?
@hazelnoot then you have no perspective what it’s like growing up without one
@iamsambarton my conclusion is based on stories from two groups of friends and acquaintances: people who grew up without a father, and people who grew up with a bad one. The latter group has suffered far more than those with no dad at all. Trauma, PTSD, anxiety disorders, and other MH problems are super common among those people.
@hazelnoot what were the defining characteristics of the “bad” father?
