A letter to fatherless America

For all time it is true:
fathers are indispensable to the health of nations because fathers are
indispensable to the health of families.
And yet, the ideals of
manliness and fatherhood within your boarders have become so alien as to be a
source of ridicule and scorn by the enlightened minds of the political and
cultural landscape. Fatherhood has been shunned from your shores as an
embarrassment from a retrograde and antiquated era.
It is little wonder then
that four out of ten—forty percent—of all your children are born to unwed
mothers . . . born fatherless. And it is little wonder then that you care so
little.
But without men—real men—and
fathers, how will little princesses ever recognize Prince Charming? Without
fathers how will little ladies ever distinguish between true love and what a
woman can give to merely satisfy a man’s selfish needs and pleasures?
Without men—real men—and
fathers, how will little men ever grow up to become Prince Charming? Without
fathers how will little gentlemen ever know to love a lady and not just use and
abuse her for what can be taken from her to satisfy his selfish needs and
pleasures?
Theodore Roosevelt said over
a century ago that “the tasks connected
with the home are the fundamental tasks of humanity. When home ties are
loosened; when men and women cease to regard a worthy family life, with all its
duties fully performed, and all its responsibilities lived up to, as the best
life worth living; then evil days for the [nation] are at hand.”
