You point to a painful root of the problem which most don’t want to address: single parent households. Last statistic I saw revealed that the US has the highest single parent household rate in the West. This is a byproduct of the Left and it’s most insidious. This needs to be addressed by rewarding stable two parent households and making rearing productive, healthy, independent children the true goal of parenthood. Instead the State rewards the opposite because it furthers the goal of dependency. We homeschooled both our children. This meant my wife was a stay at home mom and we managed on my sole income. No fancy European or Caribbean vacations or spring break holidays. But our children are in their thirties now and independent and productive loving people.
