Divorce hurts Children, a million more in the U.S. a year

Divorce hurts children: “Each year, over a million American children suffer the divorce of their parents. Divorce causes irreparable harm to all involved, but most especially to the children. Though it might be shown to benefit some individuals in some individual cases, over all it causes a temporary decrease in an individual’s quality of life and puts some “on a downward trajectory from which they might never fully recover.”1 Divorce damages society. It consumes social and human capital. It substantially increases cost to the taxpayer, while diminishing the taxpaying portion of society. It diminishes children’s future competence in all five of society’s major tasks or institutions: family, school, religion, marketplace and government. The reversal of the cultural and social … Continue reading

Population control holocaust? Family courts participate

To compare the “population control holocaust,” or the havoc that family courts wreak on families, to the Holocaust pursued by the Hitler regime evokes images that don’t ring true.  It is a logical absurdity to compare the pain caused by family courts to the harm done by the Holocaust, founded in at least two logical fallacies of the type “non sequitur” (it does not follow) and “reductio et absurdum” (disproof of a proposition by showing an absurdity to which it leads when carried to its logical conclusion).  Yet, many individuals routinely make that comparison and equate the two, but such a comparison should never be made, regardless of what other … Continue reading

Parenthood needs a village before becoming inhuman

Last updated 2018 10 23 Parenthood needs a village before becoming inhuman? The competition between nature and nurture may involve expensive, high-end, often extremely expensive technology.  The outcomes are not always viable. The urge to engage in parenthood is a human desire driven by many things: the need for procreation; hormones; ticking biological clocks; social pressure; greed for social status; the need for the intergenerational transfer of wealth, traditions and knowledge; gender activism, and by much more.  Life is short.  It was extremely short for Huxley. Every morning Ruth checks the obituaries, to see whether some of the deceased mentioned in them are known to us. This morning she pointed … Continue reading

Paul Schwennesen, separated father’s lament

Paul Schwennesen wrote a separated father’s lament that got published by the Huffington Post.  The article at the shared link is good.  It is anecdotal evidence of the consequences of a wife and mother walking out of her marriage. The father became devastated, was without a doubt fleeced by his ex who used the system to the hilt against him, by having him removed from his own home, and by having him arrested when he dared to say his good byes to his kids at the bus stop, when they went off to school. He was put in handcuffs, but apparently not into jail, until that got cleared up. A … Continue reading

Sheep People Comparisons – Are people sheeple?

Updated 2019 05 15 Sheep People Comparisons – Are people sheeple? — It was in 1997 when I first wrote this commentary.  I updated it today, but not too many changes needed to be made.  It concerns sheep people comparisons, something that many people often make.  Some do it so much that they refer to people and their  allegedly sheep-like behaviour as sheeple.  Is that fair to sheep or people?  I thought about it, and here are the results of that. Many years ago I obtained my first e-mail address.  I made it sheep_@telusplanet.net.  That address is now defunct, as eventually it became so well-known by spammers that a vast … Continue reading

Website Censorship by O2 – Update

Website censorship is real.  Today I updated the second widget in the sidebar at the right, “Recipient of the O2/Symantec Recognition Award”, to reflect that the address had been changed for the O2 URL-checker – by which O2’s website ratings as to whether a given website is rated “Blocked” or not can be checked. The censorship by O2 is for all practical intents and purposes still in effect.  Certainly, if O2 were to respond to inquiries (they don’t) as to why the blocking of the website of Fathers for Life and that of its blog is still in effect, they would argue that no censorship on their part exists. Nevertheless, … Continue reading

Is the MGTOW phenomenon a good thing or not?

The MGTOW trend (MGTOW – Men Going Their Own Way) has a few different factions, and more evolve.  It is not important to define what exists or is evolving.  It matters that splits happen time and again.  That is the nature of life, the nature of social evolution in action. Quite some years ago I began to keep track of how many factions of feminism there were. I gave up a few years later, when the count came close to a hundred or so.  The definitions I had compiled in the process of doing that show a curious variety of feminisms.  They make for interesting reading, especially for anyone who firmly … Continue reading

Fathers for Life on Facebook

Updated 2019 04 22, to add links to related articles. The website Fathers for Life on Facebook. A couple of days ago I found something that very much surprised me, a FB page called Fathers for Life. That is a great page, and, no, I am neither its creator nor did I even until yesterday know that it existed. The fact that the FB page for Fathers for Life indicated here and my website share the same name is coincidental. The introduction to that page reads: Description Men rarely have little, if any, say in the abortion topic due to the liberal agenda of the pro-choice community making it a taboo. … Continue reading
