by being a black man in the same household as my children and their mom i am already in the top %20! i can see my children are way more self-discplined and hard working than their peers. i know i did that.
There is no 100% or perfect anything. I grew up without a father, I'm just fine. Sure it wasn't easy, but it made me tougher in the end. I do consider myself an exception to the rule...
@@PennyWise-eu9nz Hey! hey! slow down. As the man said, nothing is 100% in this world. Nobody in this world is 100% complete; having 2 parents is just 1 aspect of one's life. If we were all complete, we'd not be motivated to achieve anything. Defeciency in an area of our lives is often impetus that compels us to be or to do.
All the fatherless guys I knew were these hyper emotional males. Their feelings controlled them. My father was far from perfect, but growing up with a father figure is crucial for emotional development

I was really lucky to have gone on morning walks with my father daily in my childhood as he was really busy those days, that was kind of the only quality time we spent together and I'm glad i had that kind of childhood. Still today i go on walks with my father and we talk about a lot of things whenever I'm home.
My father destroyed our family with his selfish gambling addiction. All 3 of my brother's are worthless predators. My sister and I are successful despite it all.
complete the statement: fathers are essential... because the education system nowadays is useless LOL if you dont teach your own kid, a government employee sure won't LOL
@@OFP_TODAY Only a small % of men are actually pumping and dumping. I'd estimate less than 10% of men engage in that sort of behavior, whereas over 60% of women in America subscribe to the feminism movement. You don't need to be a genius to figure out where the bigger problem lies.
When my parents split Iwhen I was a teenager and I started to rebel and started mixing with the wrong crowd 'm grateful that my mom had the awareness that I needed to be with my father especially for discipline those teenage years were crucial i believe in how I turned out even when I left home I would always call my dad we would have deep talks about life . Even growing in the 80s I could see the negative effect on my friends who came from single mother household.
🇺🇸 RELIGION IS THE REASON WHY PEOPLE ARE SO F UP! Pedophiles, alcohol, drugs, porn, closet homosexuality, MENTAL ABUSE..... that's TRUE RELIGION. Dennis Prager is closet freak!
I feel like it's not enough to just be the best dad these days. If you parent correctly in a society that doesn't parent correctly I feel that your child will interpret your parenting as abuse by their peer's comparison. I think that building a family in America is much harder than in other countries since you have an entire society against good parenting.
This country is a country of narcissism, lies, consumerism and addiction. People are addicted to lies and hateful of the truth, until they love or find a father figure. They find that love is not unconditional no matter what, and that there’s limits and boundaries to love. Character unconditionally breeds respect, love unconditionally breeds softness. Both can be great, but a halfwit with eyes can see an imbalance of either.
My dad is not perfect, had a traumatic childhood (poverty, DV, his dad was an alcoholic), left Mexico to the U.S. for a better life. He made a lot of mistakes, but my dad unconditionally loved his family, worked hard for his family without handouts and became a U.S. citizen. As I got older I saw that my dad has never healed from his trauma and lived his whole life in survival mode. He never hit my mom, never became an alcoholic or a drug addict and never put our family on the streets. He always spent time with his family, even after working 50 hours a week. He may not be a perfect father, but he has always been the best dad. Love him to death.
My father has Been truck driver, worked hard,never at home. When he finally finished and returned back to family he was ruined, kind of stranger and heavy alcoholic. I love my dad but is very dificult to keep conversation going. I háve 4kids on my own now and always make súre to spend quality tíme together. Most families in here háve 1 or 2kids. Strong character Father is most important in the family I think as well.
My mother died when I was 8yrs old in 2003, but she had already taken me away from my father a couple years prior. My father received custody of me and it’s been me and him ever since for almost twenty years. While I definitely went through a lot with my dad, I understand and respect what how he raised me and why he is the way he is. He taught me strength and accountability. Without him, I wouldn’t be the man that I am today. For reference, my father is 69 years old so he had me extremely late, but I think his teaching from generations ago is another huge factor that helped.
Growing up in India, families usually have both parents and often grandparents also living in the same house or in the same neighborhood. It gives a broader sense of life to children as they grow up seeing the old age.
Yes, fathers are needed. Marriage is important and is the cornerstone of family. People should at least start there before having children. However, our society seems to disregard traditional values. I could go on and on with this. I always enjoy the topics covered on this channel! They make you think.
The people aren’t disregarding the values just for the sake of rebellion. Monogamy doesn’t along well with our evolved biology, even though it’s the best route for greater society. This is our dilemma.
@@LotusHart01 Although monogamy is important in a relationship, and couples do break up their families because of infidelity, the children should not have to suffer because their parents hate each other. It is a value to want to raise your child, which has been the way of humans. So, although people may find it difficult to uphold many traditional values, they should at least be dedicated to being a part of raising their children. Yes, the children are the future and the adults neglecting them will need them some day. What goes around comes around! We all must pay for the consequences of our actions.
The only problem with your statement is that you say traditional values, the nuclear family the nuclear model of family is not traditional in any respect. It didn't exist before the 1950s. And it died as soon as the government stopped subsidizing it. People got married but You had extended family members in the same home as well.
I can tell by your name that you are not seeking any type of commitment, much less marriage. I will reserve my comment as I do not have the energy to further expand my comment. Continue on your journey of needing hoez!😂😂👍🏾
Solution: We can give low earning married couples free income tax. This eliminates welfare culture and promotes healthy family dynamics, it also preemptively tackles single motherhood consequences on children like: Higher incarceration rates, Higher mental health vulnerability. Worse predictions for personal relationship success. Lower projections for education. 100x more likely to be abused by a step parent. More likely to live in poverty. More likely to have addiction problems. Given these known hazards on the next generation it is reasonable to suggest that this is the biggest crisis the west faces and there are solutions that get ignored.
@@GODISMYDAD we could be looking at for the first time in history people are without religion. It could be a societal consequence of women having control over their reproduction for the first time in history.

@@GODISMYDAD I beleive the wests government's have incentivised marriage dissolution with welfare culture and rewarding family destruction. In the UK women get: Free housing, weekly money, free council tax, child support, family credits, debt discharged and a weekend babysitter so the result has been there is an odd trend of multi generational welfare reliance that is comparable to child abuse. If mum were to work 16 hours a week they also get 'working tax credit' which is around £100pw so children are often used as a lifestyle option people are afraid to talk about
I lost my dad at age 6 and had no male role model per se. I read a lot and found things out for myself,my years in seminary positively impacted me and I'm thankful for my eldest brother,he didn't say much but was very responsible and I just tried to emulate him. Thank God now,everyone is good and taking care of momma.
SBF of FTX is a prime example of a kid from an upper class family that received no criticism or held accountable to his mistakes. Even in jail he still takes no responsibility for the destruction he caused.

Father's are SOOOOO important and create order within the home!! Children sometimes negate following their mother's instructions but a bellowing thunderous voice of a father sends them marching off to go do exactly was she wanted them to do!!
I didn't really have a good relationship with my for 20 years, living under the same roof it's weird. Now I'm a dad and I was wrong, he was there for me and didn't I didn't appreciate. Lucky for me I came around and have the opportunity to make up for it.
The most telling stat that Pat talked about was (and I’m paraphrasing) the fact that kids with two parents had the same chance in life as kids who were raised by a single parent where the father was the single parent. When mothers are the single parent, all problematic issues with kids are much more common when the single parent is the mother alone. Great stat to use for ammunition when debating these left radicals and staunch feminists!
I had custody of my oldest son and raised him on my own from the time he was 2 1/2 years old and I will say he is a good young and successful 21 year old man now. It was interesting hearing this stat from Pat.

Please have Katy Faust on your show; she goes into great depth on this topic regarding the family. She is a child advocate. She goes over every family structure and shares the research along with countless stories of children who come from such structures and the negative impact it has had on children.
This is a huge problem that does NOT get talked about at all from the left or the right. My beef with Dennis here is his advice SUCKS. “Grow up, get married!” Not a peep about changing any of the laws that cause fatherless homes. Change welfare laws? Alimony and child support if you kick the father out of the home? No?
It's your fault for squirting in a woman who is not your wife nor partner. The govt is cleaning up your mess. Poor attempt, but they wouldnt have to do it if you married your partner. Stop blamimg strangers
He is controlled opposition He dont say anything about court abuse, drugs and pronography His answer is " individualism" The same answer as peterson They are here to control the right I opened my eyes to this when i investigate that camille paglia used to promote intimacy with minors, and paglia is very closd friend with peterson Its a big club and you aint in it
None of these cause fatherless homes. Men were abandoning their families long before these things were in place or running around impregnating women. Nick Cannon is a prime example. None of what you’ve listed is keeping him out of the home. A lot of men lack sexual discipline or a sense of responsibility to anyone other than themselves. Women are now learning to stop dealing with most and having higher standards resulting in the declining birth rate and the “rise of lonely men” article outcomes. Also, nothing is stopping men from changing policies and the law. The majority of judges, lawyers, politicians, etc are men. Men could change things if they really wanted to.
Fatherlessness has nothing to do with this. I'm from India and was raised by my single mother when my dad died ar the age of 32 and mom was just 30. Lack of family values, lack of discipline, lack of respect for elders, not prioritizing education is the main issue. Also the govt interfering into other countries rather than focusing on its own people. My mom suffered a lot,was strict and we three kids are successful now. Many Americans bring up their children rather more freely with less discipline. And also there is very less community support when someone suffers hardship.

I simultaneously agree, but still never want kids myself. Especially nowadays. F that lol. I feel it's cruel to the kid to optionally create and expose them to the current state of the world.
@@LotusHart01 Yep I agree dude. It's unfortunate that's the case, but it's the truth. There's a lot of things in life you just can't avoid..making an income, paying bills/taxes, having food, medical help in an emergency, having a place to sleep, transportation, etc. You get what I'm saying. Having a kid (and getting married) is 100% on you. I f'in hate when ppl bitch about having kids. I get it's a struggle and consumes your life...but you chose to do that lol. And you're right, it is typically low income people who recklessly have children when they can't afford it. And then pass on responsibility to the govt. It's never been worse too. It really is selfish to acknowledge that, but then go ahead and have a kid for your own reasons.
I feel that. I have a dad, and he did the best he could, but even good enough dads aren’t the best parents. I’m 31, and still figuring out things that 18 year old are taught by more responsible parents. Best of luck in your endeavors.
Fathers come good and bad. Let's be clear GOOD fathers are essential. I had a father in the home but he was verbally and physically abusive. I would rather have not had him as a dad. I left as soon as I legally could.
@user-pn1fy2jz1m Yeah there are bad fathers too, like for example the Egyptian man in Texas who murdered his two daughters because they were dating Non Muslim boys. In that situation the two daughters would still be alive and a lot better off had they been raised by a single mother.
Yes thats the most important caveat. The father must be a good father or at least non abusive. Otherwise it's not helpful and very destructive to girls and boys.
That's a small percentage of what occurs in these situations. We have a system which rewards and incentivizes women to be single mothers which in turn punishes and forces single fathers away from their children. And that's just one aspect of the issue. There is a small percentage of shitty men like you mention, but I bet 99.9% of those men grew up in the fatherless culture our society is promoting. They are the end result of the system. But child support makes state govts billions each cycle, and multi billions for the family court system and attorneys who write the laws and promote the system.
I do not know about other people but I loved and even though he is nolonger alive , I still love my Father . He taught me self - discipline , responsibility and independent thinking . Although he was not always present at home because of his work I am grateful to him for the time he devoted to me and my siblings . In my opinion the role of the father in the proper development of the child is very important , I confirm that . However , men who decide to start family and have offspring must be really responsible because from what I know not every man has predisposition to be a father just as not every woman is predisposed to be a motherc. I mean here not only the physical aspect but above all the aspect of MENTAL MATURITY . Father should be caring and be able to provide a dignified existence for his family and most of all his time . Time and dedication. ( The same goes for the mother .) From what I saw snd what I know is that not everyone deserves to be a mother or a father .
I couldn't imagine having a solid experience in life without my dad's presence. He was a strong voice and hand of reasoning and beliefs. My mother neutered me and help me heal from the wounds.. You need a strong Father Figure and a mother to have a normal childhood and a strong structure for a child who grows up to be a man or woman
Its crazy that there isn't a single factor that contributes more universally to all negative things in the world and as a society we basically turn a blind eye to it or refuse to talk about it.
My mother divorced my father, got the house, car, alimony and child support. Did her best to raise me with her feminist mindset. Coming from a household like that, from the trajectory, not much good could’ve been expected
@@elsa_nyc He more than likely was so broke he could barely survive and had to work everyday just to make ends meet to eat and keep a roof over his head on top of the very limited visitation he was allowed by the courts. That's pretty much just the tip of the iceberg.
Family Courts share in this responsibility. A man is automatically in a financial hole at the start and primary custody is defaulted to the mother. 50/50 this or that language is meaningless if there is no enforcement or accountability. Like it or not this leads to less involvement by a father because in the end we’re powerless. It could be better, but who’s going to change the system or mindset?
💯 I have been viewed by my daughter, her mother, and society as nothing more than a financial responder for the past 22 years. I have had ZERO say in any decisions or directions made since day 1, and my daughter has since forced herself into estrangement from me, regardless of anything I’ve continuously done or said. Fully encouraged by the mom, and fully supported by our society. It’s disgusting.
They do not. And you are full of excuses. Also, unless there’s a prenup, there is no “your.” All assets and debts are joint. And yes, often the mother is established custodial environment, although it can just as often be the father - in which case the court will lean slightly toward him re: any real custodial dispute. The court does not ever gaf about you or what’s in your pants. It is about the division of debts and assets and the well being of the child. You are not a lawyer.
Kids and their screens, everyone whines about them, but they can be a powerful tool. If they mess up, they're taken away, simple as that and they know it. One time, my oldest got his screens taken away for a week, not a usual thing. A few days in, his teacher messaged us to say how GOOD he was being. Got his screens instantly back and he hasn't had any issues since.
I like Dennis and generally agree with him. With that said, you’re never really the head of your home in a modern marriage. At any moment your wife can summon the power of the state to strip you of all the benefits. We can’t expect men to just willing walk into the meat grinder until laws change. This isn’t going to happen, so marriage will only head down from here.
He is telling several truths. Fatherless-ness is a psychologically degenerative quality of society. I do not wish this on anyone. I consider being childless because the likelihood of fatherless-ness is extremely high within my racial and ethnic group. I don’t want that for my son or daughter. Sad times we live in.

The reason behind fatherlessness in USA and Western Europe is Welfare state. The more you incentivize not needing fathers for financial earnings in a household, more men and women stay away from marriage. Welfare State has had same results for UK, Iceland, USA and any number of western countries.
I agree that fatherlessness is a massive problem. I am glad that they addressed the issue of fathers being physically there but not present. So it is not just being in the same household, it actually raising your kids. The issue is not feminism. The issue is not religion. The issue is the economic!!!! Prior to the 1950s we lived in mutli generational homes with extended kinship support. This meant inlaws, cousins, even boarders helped with the running of the household. We removed the built in support networks that come with family and extended kin and dumped all of the responsibility onto the mother. The nuclear family model with the single male breadwinner did not exist at anytime in human history and has disintegrated as quickly as it came. It was always a fabrication. A PR campaign designed to sell cars, washing machines, and houses in the suburbs. Nothing more, nothing less. It was a model designed to break up multi generational family living to sell products. The government subsidized every aspect of 1950s middle class American living. For example: 1. 3% interest rates on 30 year mortgages. Prior to this, you needed a 50% down payment and had to pay off a mortgage in 10 years. 2. We robbed the cities public transportation infrastructure money to build interstate highways to sell cars and suburban sprawl. 3. The federal government subsidized private industry by giving away military technology so companies could turn a profit. This created high paying jobs for unskilled laborers. 4. WW2 just ended and the U.S enjoyed zero competition in the production of goods because the world was in shambles 5. Banking laws were changed so that money that money could be invested outside of the communities where the depositors lived. 6. Tax subsidies to car manufacturers that legit still exist today. 7. Fully government funded colleges. GI bills allowed men to get free education and increase their skills. The list goes on. The U.S. economic policy was designed to create an environment where the sole male breadwinner model could exist. Once they stopped subsidizing it, it crumbled. The only reason the middle class didn't fall into poverty is because the women in those families went back to work. You can actually track the employment data and see that middle class white women had returned to the work force wayyyy before the "feminism" came into play. Once again, feminism means that political, economic, and social equality, between the sexes. Women being allowed to vote, own property, have credit cards. Feminism is NOT about removing men from the homes. The economic castration removed men from the homes. In the seventies, when we started shipping unskilled jobs out of the country, we started to see the deterioration of the family unit. You can use the African American culture as a perfect example of what happens when the men are not economically viable. Blacks were gaining footing after slavery because they were skilled laborers. Jim crow, and discrimination played a major role in the black men not being able to be providers as the skills they were excluded from working in their skilled trades. Their inability to provide meant the women had to fend for themselves. Marriage is and has always been a vehicle for economic mobility. Why marry someone who is not financially strong? Make no sense. Fast forward 40 years and you see the devastation. Now, white America is starting to feel the economic consequences of (1) the government destruction of the extended family kinship model and (2) the failure to continue to subsidize the male sole bread winner model. We are about to experience more job displacement due automation. The men have to level up and find a valuable skill they can sell in the market. You cannot be an unskilled laborer and make it. This is not about religion. It is about politics, in terms of who you vote for and which policies they enact. Once again we are fighting each other instead of demanding that our government use out tax dollars to help families. They have the men and women divided, they have the races divided, the religions divided! What do we all have in common? We ALL work for a living. We are not the leisure class. You can own your own business but you are still working class. If you cant retire today and your grand kids will be ok, then your ass is WORKING class. Focus on stabilizing the working class by: 1. Creating good paying jobs 2. Free tuition so we can learn new skills 3. Low cost childcare (which would have been free in the extended kinship model). 4. Lower hosing costs 5. Free health care You know, all of the basic stuff that all other industrialized nations do to support their citizens. Nordic countries are notoriously non religious and leftist. Yet, they don't have any of the problems we have.
That is sad to read but change in societies happens with each individual. Use great ideas to build yourself into a man of strength and character, a man of your word, skilful and with a purpose that also serves the ones around you as well. If you enjoy topics about masculinity and mastery, I invite you to explore the videos I share on the Mastery Order Channel. Challenge yourself with some concepts about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire. We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well. All the best to you!
It's not just feminism. My ex-husband grew up in a 2 parent home, so he experienced what having his parents under the same roof. Fast forward, he (exhusband) abandoned us his family to make house with another women and another man's children. He left behind a 12 year old girl and 5 year old boy, who loved his dad. When he was leaving he said, " the kids will be ok." My son at 24 copes with abandonment issues. Breaks my heart.
@@PraiseJesusChristOurSavior This is the issue right here. So many men refuse to take accountability or just admit there are shitty men out there. Newsflash - there are men that abandon their families because they want to. Not because they were made to but because they no longer want to be there. Men need to stop the whole let’s blame feminism, government and child support for crap thsts been happening well before those things existed. And how week must these men be to blame women, who they believe egg be to not be leaders but followers? How about men start leading other men to behave themselves and practice sexual discipline and stop blaming the parent who stayed.
@@PraiseJesusChristOurSavior Comments like this. Regardless of what happened in their marital relationship, that man left his fcking children. You always wanna blame the woman for taking her responsibility seriously and raising her children.
Still, he wouldn't never talk about the deep down sinister reasons. These problems were apparent decades ago! The only reason this is being brought up now is because now it is effective a certain people.
Black males push pump and dump culture, refuse to educate themselves and destroy everything they touch. My Black male father destroyed our family. I'll never forgive or forget what he did.
@@SiccDeville The truth like “80% of black women are having children with 20% of black men.” We know that’s false because by 40, 80% of black men in the US are fathers so who are they having children with every child is not biracial. or was it that “50% of black men are childless” again 60% of black men over 30 are fathers and 80% over 40 are fathers. So who was he talking about 20 somethings? Just FYI black men and women parent children at the same rate black men like other men have their children a few years later than women on average. Or maybe it’s “Women are needed to keep a society going.” Kevin Samuels was a charlatan, you need to look no further than his prior videos targeting men that were never watched by the way, in which he totally contradicted himself. It’s a shame that black men need to hear what’s wrong with black women to feel good about themselves. If he were the leader you say he was, he would’ve been focused on gang violence or starting a mentorship program for young men. How do black men change the state of their existence if they focus on what women are doing or not doing?!?
He starts out blaming feminism and that is a very small part. Bring me on this show. I’ve just written two books on fatherhood. What we are not going to do is just make feminism the scapegoat. It’s bs Fatherhood is the solution and the problem.
As a single father who fully believes that fathers are devalued in our society, I have to say that it's VERY unfortunate that Prager almost solely focuses on toxic feminism and secularism here. The problem isn't the college-educated woman who decides that she doesn't need a husband and ends up wanting to have a child. Those things can play a role, but the bigger problem is that people have sex irresponsibly and that society, through its devaluing fatherhood lets too many fathers off the hook and doesn't demand and expect involvement. That transcends left and right.
The stats. are mind-boggling something is VERY wrong with how kids are being taught and raised today! The US has the highest rate of children living in a single parent household at 23% Compared to the word average at 7% with China's 3% and India's 4% 80% of single-parent homes are led by single mothers Father present at home only spends about 30 minutes per week in 1on1 conversations with his son For comparison, the same boy on average will spend about 44 hours per week watching television playing video games, and surfing the internet. 90% of all homeless and runaway children, 63% of suicide 85% of children and teens with behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes Roughly 70% of teenage pregnancies come from women raised in fatherless homes and the same women have significantly higher abortion rates Fatherless kids are 20 times more likely to be incarcerated in 11 times more likely to exhibit violent behavior
I'm English, 60 yrs old 7 kids. Working class. What I see regularly is feral kids who do not care largely from fatherless homes and this is in the white community. They struggle at school have a more violent disposition and are likely to desert the kids they have. I disagree with the feminist angle and would point to the explosion of drug use and high unemployment that occurred in the 70's which created a generation of one parent families followed by another

Thank you so much for sharing this to us Dennis for sharing this piece of advice to the world about 'Parents advice to children'....I often don't hear people talking about this kind of topic much...I learn so much from the Jewish people they are really a great example to my life !! GOD BLESS YOUR TEAM 🙌 🙏 ❤
"I'll tell your dad, when he get home" "I'll call uncle sunny, if you misbehave" Those worlds will put the fear of God in you. A father figure and a compound family is important!
Prager was perfect in this. Everything he said was spot on. I love his phrase, denial of the obvious. So true. As a young man who didn't have a father because he was a deadbeat and total trash, I can tell you first hand how it affects a person. Fathers are critical.

For the past 15 years we have been working to help fatherless families across the United States! We are here to help fatherless families (fatherless individuals, single moms, and grandparents raising their grandkids), and churches as they minister to these families locally! Let us know how we can help!
the thing is , they're not helping to reunite. did you hear they help single fathers or fathers that lost contact to their kids? it's the social product and advertisement what's popular.
I swear I see so many 16-24yr old women having kids and never getting married. Then I see so many 25-35yr old women getting married and divorced but never having kids (they divorce because they are unhappy)
If you grew up hear the following dreaded words “wait until your father gets home”… you know why a father is important
In Indian homes, this is a norm.
As a Nigerian that word put the fear of God in me growing up and even now I still get ptsd hearing it
In America where gay men can have children is sickening 🤢💯
Heard these words days before he got home . So imagine having to sit a week knowing you was in for it come Saturday 😂😂
I was told that. And I waited for 20 years. 😢
by being a black man in the same household as my children and their mom i am already in the top %20! i can see my children are way more self-discplined and hard working than their peers. i know i did that.

Thank you for your service
Fathers are heroes to their children.
Very proud right now
Thank you for creating productive members of society. Your service is greatly appreciated.
This is 100% true. I grew up without a father. People are not realizing the damage that's being done in so many areas of society.
There is no 100% or perfect anything. I grew up without a father, I'm just fine. Sure it wasn't easy, but it made me tougher in the end. I do consider myself an exception to the rule...

When my parents split Iwhen I was a teenager and I started to rebel and started mixing with the wrong crowd 'm grateful that my mom had the awareness that I needed to be with my father especially for discipline those teenage years were crucial i believe in how I turned out even when I left home I would always call my dad we would have deep talks about life . Even growing in the 80s I could see the negative effect on my friends who came from single mother household.
I've seen people who only had single fathers and they're all fucking crazy and violent

I feel like it's not enough to just be the best dad these days. If you parent correctly in a society that doesn't parent correctly I feel that your child will interpret your parenting as abuse by their peer's comparison. I think that building a family in America is much harder than in other countries since you have an entire society against good parenting.
100 percent agreed.
100%
I agree with you. America's libertine degeneracy is a cancer that afflicts everyone.
This country is a country of narcissism, lies, consumerism and addiction. People are addicted to lies and hateful of the truth, until they love or find a father figure. They find that love is not unconditional no matter what, and that there’s limits and boundaries to love. Character unconditionally breeds respect, love unconditionally breeds softness. Both can be great, but a halfwit with eyes can see an imbalance of either.
that's why the wise and able homeschool and create a community for their children where those values are expressed and encouraged...
This guy just kicked the a** of many.
He described many of my own life experiences.
We are here to help on your fatherless journey!
My dad is not perfect, had a traumatic childhood (poverty, DV, his dad was an alcoholic), left Mexico to the U.S. for a better life. He made a lot of mistakes, but my dad unconditionally loved his family, worked hard for his family without handouts and became a U.S. citizen. As I got older I saw that my dad has never healed from his trauma and lived his whole life in survival mode. He never hit my mom, never became an alcoholic or a drug addict and never put our family on the streets. He always spent time with his family, even after working 50 hours a week. He may not be a perfect father, but he has always been the best dad. Love him to death.
Feel fortunate that I’ve had a supportive strong father in my life.
My father has Been truck driver, worked hard,never at home. When he finally finished and returned back to family he was ruined, kind of stranger and heavy alcoholic. I love my dad but is very dificult to keep conversation going. I háve 4kids on my own now and always make súre to spend quality tíme together. Most families in here háve 1 or 2kids. Strong character Father is most important in the family I think as well.
My mother died when I was 8yrs old in 2003, but she had already taken me away from my father a couple years prior. My father received custody of me and it’s been me and him ever since for almost twenty years. While I definitely went through a lot with my dad, I understand and respect what how he raised me and why he is the way he is. He taught me strength and accountability. Without him, I wouldn’t be the man that I am today. For reference, my father is 69 years old so he had me extremely late, but I think his teaching from generations ago is another huge factor that helped.
I'm sorry about your loss. Enjoy your time with your father and cherish him. May Allah bless and guide you both.
Finally somebody nail it. A decent father is a road map of how to be when you get there.
Growing up in India, families usually have both parents and often grandparents also living in the same house or in the same neighborhood. It gives a broader sense of life to children as they grow up seeing the old age.
Yes, fathers are needed. Marriage is important and is the cornerstone of family. People should at least start there before having children. However, our society seems to disregard traditional values. I could go on and on with this. I always enjoy the topics covered on this channel! They make you think.
The people aren’t disregarding the values just for the sake of rebellion. Monogamy doesn’t along well with our evolved biology, even though it’s the best route for greater society. This is our dilemma.
@@LotusHart01 Although monogamy is important in a relationship, and couples do break up their families because of infidelity, the children should not have to suffer because their parents hate each other. It is a value to want to raise your child, which has been the way of humans. So, although people may find it difficult to uphold many traditional values, they should at least be dedicated to being a part of raising their children. Yes, the children are the future and the adults neglecting them will need them some day. What goes around comes around! We all must pay for the consequences of our actions.
The only problem with your statement is that you say traditional values, the nuclear family the nuclear model of family is not traditional in any respect.
It didn't exist before the 1950s. And it died as soon as the government stopped subsidizing it. People got married but You had extended family members in the same home as well.

Wow, this was beautiful to hear. Sharing all over the place, people need to hear this conversation.

Solution: We can give low earning married couples free income tax.
This eliminates welfare culture and promotes healthy family dynamics, it also preemptively tackles single motherhood consequences on children like:
Higher incarceration rates,
Higher mental health vulnerability.
Worse predictions for personal relationship success.
Lower projections for education.
100x more likely to be abused by a step parent.
More likely to live in poverty.
More likely to have addiction problems.
Given these known hazards on the next generation it is reasonable to suggest that this is the biggest crisis the west faces and there are solutions that get ignored.

@@GODISMYDAD I beleive the wests government's have incentivised marriage dissolution with welfare culture and rewarding family destruction.
In the UK women get:
Free housing, weekly money, free council tax, child support, family credits, debt discharged and a weekend babysitter so the result has been there is an odd trend of multi generational welfare reliance that is comparable to child abuse.
If mum were to work 16 hours a week they also get 'working tax credit' which is around £100pw so children are often used as a lifestyle option people are afraid to talk about
I lost my dad at age 6 and had no male role model per se. I read a lot and found things out for myself,my years in seminary positively impacted me and I'm thankful for my eldest brother,he didn't say much but was very responsible and I just tried to emulate him.

Father's are SOOOOO important and create order within the home!! Children sometimes negate following their mother's instructions but a bellowing thunderous voice of a father sends them marching off to go do exactly was she wanted them to do!!
I didn't really have a good relationship with my for 20 years, living under the same roof it's weird. Now I'm a dad and I was wrong, he was there for me and didn't I didn't appreciate. Lucky for me I came around and have the opportunity to make up for it.
The most telling stat that Pat talked about was (and I’m paraphrasing) the fact that kids with two parents had the same chance in life as kids who were raised by a single parent where the father was the single parent. When mothers are the single parent, all problematic issues with kids are much more common when the single parent is the mother alone. Great stat to use for ammunition when debating these left radicals and staunch feminists!
Why do so many men walk away from their children?

Please have Katy Faust on your show; she goes into great depth on this topic regarding the family. She is a child advocate. She goes over every family structure and shares the research along with countless stories of children who come from such structures and the negative impact it has had on children.
People need to admit that people who are older and wiser really do know more then younger people do.
This is a huge problem that does NOT get talked about at all from the left or the right. My beef with Dennis here is his advice SUCKS. “Grow up, get married!” Not a peep about changing any of the laws that cause fatherless homes. Change welfare laws? Alimony and child support if you kick the father out of the home? No?
It's your fault for squirting in a woman who is not your wife nor partner. The govt is cleaning up your mess. Poor attempt, but they wouldnt have to do it if you married your partner. Stop blamimg strangers

True
None of these cause fatherless homes. Men were abandoning their families long before these things were in place or running around impregnating women. Nick Cannon is a prime example. None of what you’ve listed is keeping him out of the home.
A lot of men lack sexual discipline or a sense of responsibility to anyone other than themselves.
Women are now learning to stop dealing with most and having higher standards resulting in the declining birth rate and the “rise of lonely men” article outcomes.
Also, nothing is stopping men from changing policies and the law. The majority of judges, lawyers, politicians, etc are men. Men could change things if they really wanted to.
Too many people have forsaken God the Father. They have forsaken Jesus as God. We need to turn our hearts back to Him, he holds it all together.

Fatherlessness has nothing to do with this. I'm from India and was raised by my single mother when my dad died ar the age of 32 and mom was just 30. Lack of family values, lack of discipline, lack of respect for elders, not prioritizing education is the main issue. Also the govt interfering into other countries rather than focusing on its own people. My mom suffered a lot,was strict and we three kids are successful now. Many Americans bring up their children rather more freely with less discipline. And also there is very less community support when someone suffers hardship.

@@KB-un3bt There are also constructive single mothers.
@user-pn1fy2jz1m
Yeah there are bad fathers too, like for example the Egyptian man in Texas who murdered his two daughters because they were dating Non Muslim boys. In that situation the two daughters would still be alive and a lot better off had they been raised by a single mother.
I think host has issues with women
Yes thats the most important caveat. The father must be a good father or at least non abusive. Otherwise it's not helpful and very destructive to girls and boys.
My dad was critical of me, he wasn't encouraging either. The little I received helped me a bunch.
We don't have fathers now a days, we have boys having kids and abandoning them. Fathers are scares and few.
That's a small percentage of what occurs in these situations. We have a system which rewards and incentivizes women to be single mothers which in turn punishes and forces single fathers away from their children.
And that's just one aspect of the issue. There is a small percentage of shitty men like you mention, but I bet 99.9% of those men grew up in the fatherless culture our society is promoting. They are the end result of the system.
But child support makes state govts billions each cycle, and multi billions for the family court system and attorneys who write the laws and promote the system.
Scarce* and no, fathers aren't scarce. Shitty women kick the fathers out of theirs and their children's lives.

Prager is amazing - his wisdom is beyond impressive
I do not know about other people
but I loved and even though he
is nolonger alive , I still love my
Father .
He taught me self - discipline ,
responsibility and independent
thinking .
Although he was not always present at home because of his work I am
grateful to him for the time he
devoted to me and my siblings .
In my opinion the role of the father in the proper development of the child
is very important , I confirm that .
However , men who decide to start
family and have offspring must be
really responsible because from what
I know not every man has predisposition
to be a father just as not every woman
is predisposed to be a motherc.
I mean here not only the physical
aspect but above all the aspect of
MENTAL MATURITY .
Father should be caring and be able
to provide a dignified existence
for his family and most of all his time .
Time and dedication. ( The same goes
for the mother .)
From what I saw snd what I know is that
not everyone deserves to be a mother
or a father .
No we need to educate young women because they have been led astray. The men r suffering too.
I couldn't imagine having a solid experience in life without my dad's presence.
He was a strong voice and hand of reasoning and beliefs.
My mother neutered me and help me heal from the wounds..
You need a strong Father Figure and a mother to have a normal childhood and a strong structure for a child who grows up to be a man or woman
Its crazy that there isn't a single factor that contributes more universally to all negative things in the world and as a society we basically turn a blind eye to it or refuse to talk about it.
dennis prager is nothing short of truly EXCELLENT. it is a privilege to hear his wisdom.
My mother divorced my father, got the house, car, alimony and child support.
Did her best to raise me with her feminist mindset.
Coming from a household like that, from the trajectory, not much good could’ve been expected
a woman cannot teach a boy to be a man no matter how much she thinks she can.
Why wasn't your father involved? Did he abandon after the divorce?
@@elsa_nyc you didn't read?
she got house , alimony, child support.
it's pretty hard to exist after being bend over so hard.
@@elsa_nyc He more than likely was so broke he could barely survive and had to work everyday just to make ends meet to eat and keep a roof over his head on top of the very limited visitation he was allowed by the courts. That's pretty much just the tip of the iceberg.
@@elsa_nyc probably had to work multiple jobs after child support and alimony
Denis Prager is a treasure.
Very good segment. Thank you for speaking about this
I agree. Self control is everything.
Family Courts share in this responsibility. A man is automatically in a financial hole at the start and primary custody is defaulted to the mother. 50/50 this or that language is meaningless if there is no enforcement or accountability. Like it or not this leads to less involvement by a father because in the end we’re powerless. It could be better, but who’s going to change the system or mindset?
Post feminist backlash
That’s why you’re suppose to keep your family intact.
💯 I have been viewed by my daughter, her mother, and society as nothing more than a financial responder for the past 22 years. I have had ZERO say in any decisions or directions made since day 1, and my daughter has since forced herself into estrangement from me, regardless of anything I’ve continuously done or said. Fully encouraged by the mom, and fully supported by our society. It’s disgusting.
@@ALuxeLife life doesn’t always go the way you planned. Best of luck to you
They do not. And you are full of excuses.
Also, unless there’s a prenup, there is no “your.” All assets and debts are joint.
And yes, often the mother is established custodial environment, although it can just as often be the father - in which case the court will lean slightly toward him re: any real custodial dispute. The court does not ever gaf about you or what’s in your pants. It is about the division of debts and assets and the well being of the child.
You are not a lawyer.
Kids and their screens, everyone whines about them, but they can be a powerful tool.
If they mess up, they're taken away, simple as that and they know it.
One time, my oldest got his screens taken away for a week, not a usual thing.
A few days in, his teacher messaged us to say how GOOD he was being.
Got his screens instantly back and he hasn't had any issues since.
I like Dennis and generally agree with him. With that said, you’re never really the head of your home in a modern marriage. At any moment your wife can summon the power of the state to strip you of all the benefits. We can’t expect men to just willing walk into the meat grinder until laws change. This isn’t going to happen, so marriage will only head down from here.
Dennis speaks a lot of truths. we need to turn this shit around before it's too late.
It's too late. BROOTALY over.
Turn it around how though? How do get women to choose better husbands and for men to not walk away from their children? This is a complicated problem

He is telling several truths. Fatherless-ness is a psychologically degenerative quality of society. I do not wish this on anyone. I consider being childless because the likelihood of fatherless-ness is extremely high within my racial and ethnic group. I don’t want that for my son or daughter. Sad times we live in.

It’s going to take men to teach the wayward ones and I’m glad the good are finally speaking up!
The reason behind fatherlessness in USA and Western Europe is Welfare state. The more you incentivize not needing fathers for financial earnings in a household, more men and women stay away from marriage. Welfare State has had same results for UK, Iceland, USA and any number of western countries.
I agree that fatherlessness is a massive problem. I am glad that they addressed the issue of fathers being physically there but not present. So it is not just being in the same household, it actually raising your kids.
The issue is not feminism. The issue is not religion. The issue is the economic!!!! Prior to the 1950s we lived in mutli generational homes with extended kinship support. This meant inlaws, cousins, even boarders helped with the running of the household. We removed the built in support networks that come with family and extended kin and dumped all of the responsibility onto the mother. The nuclear family model with the single male breadwinner did not exist at anytime in human history and has disintegrated as quickly as it came. It was always a fabrication. A PR campaign designed to sell cars, washing machines, and houses in the suburbs. Nothing more, nothing less.
It was a model designed to break up multi generational family living to sell products. The government subsidized every aspect of 1950s middle class American living.
For example:
1. 3% interest rates on 30 year mortgages. Prior to this, you needed a 50% down payment and had to pay off a mortgage in 10 years.
2. We robbed the cities public transportation infrastructure money to build interstate highways to sell cars and suburban sprawl.
3. The federal government subsidized private industry by giving away military technology so companies could turn a profit. This created high paying jobs for unskilled laborers.
4. WW2 just ended and the U.S enjoyed zero competition in the production of goods because the world was in shambles
5. Banking laws were changed so that money that money could be invested outside of the communities where the depositors lived.
6. Tax subsidies to car manufacturers that legit still exist today.
7. Fully government funded colleges. GI bills allowed men to get free education and increase their skills.
The list goes on. The U.S. economic policy was designed to create an environment where the sole male breadwinner model could exist. Once they stopped subsidizing it, it crumbled. The only reason the middle class didn't fall into poverty is because the women in those families went back to work.
You can actually track the employment data and see that middle class white women had returned to the work force wayyyy before the "feminism" came into play. Once again, feminism means that political, economic, and social equality, between the sexes. Women being allowed to vote, own property, have credit cards. Feminism is NOT about removing men from the homes. The economic castration removed men from the homes.
In the seventies, when we started shipping unskilled jobs out of the country, we started to see the deterioration of the family unit.
You can use the African American culture as a perfect example of what happens when the men are not economically viable. Blacks were gaining footing after slavery because they were skilled laborers. Jim crow, and discrimination played a major role in the black men not being able to be providers as the skills they were excluded from working in their skilled trades. Their inability to provide meant the women had to fend for themselves. Marriage is and has always been a vehicle for economic mobility. Why marry someone who is not financially strong? Make no sense.
Fast forward 40 years and you see the devastation. Now, white America is starting to feel the economic consequences of (1) the government destruction of the extended family kinship model and (2) the failure to continue to subsidize the male sole bread winner model.
We are about to experience more job displacement due automation. The men have to level up and find a valuable skill they can sell in the market. You cannot be an unskilled laborer and make it. This is not about religion. It is about politics, in terms of who you vote for and which policies they enact. Once again we are fighting each other instead of demanding that our government use out tax dollars to help families. They have the men and women divided, they have the races divided, the religions divided! What do we all have in common? We ALL work for a living. We are not the leisure class. You can own your own business but you are still working class. If you cant retire today and your grand kids will be ok, then your ass is WORKING class. Focus on stabilizing the working class by:
1. Creating good paying jobs
2. Free tuition so we can learn new skills
3. Low cost childcare (which would have been free in the extended kinship model).
4. Lower hosing costs
5. Free health care
You know, all of the basic stuff that all other industrialized nations do to support their citizens. Nordic countries are notoriously non religious and leftist. Yet, they don't have any of the problems we have.
I wouldn't wish single motherhood on my worst enemy

@@juliettezea9507 it is like running a race with one leg

That is sad to read but change in societies happens with each individual. Use great ideas to build yourself into a man of strength and character, a man of your word, skilful and with a purpose that also serves the ones around you as well.

Challenge yourself with some concepts about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire.
We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well.
All the best to you!
It's not just feminism. My ex-husband grew up in a 2 parent home, so he experienced what having his parents under the same roof. Fast forward, he (exhusband) abandoned us his family to make house with another women and another man's children. He left behind a 12 year old girl and 5 year old boy, who loved his dad. When he was leaving he said, " the kids will be ok." My son at 24 copes with abandonment issues. Breaks my heart.
What did you do wrong???? Stop putting all the blame on he man.
@@PraiseJesusChristOurSavior This is the issue right here. So many men refuse to take accountability or just admit there are shitty men out there.
Newsflash - there are men that abandon their families because they want to. Not because they were made to but because they no longer want to be there.
Men need to stop the whole let’s blame feminism, government and child support for crap thsts been happening well before those things existed.
And how week must these men be to blame women, who they believe egg be to not be leaders but followers? How about men start leading other men to behave themselves and practice sexual discipline and stop blaming the parent who stayed.
@@PraiseJesusChristOurSavior Comments like this. Regardless of what happened in their marital relationship, that man left his fcking children. You always wanna blame the woman for taking her responsibility seriously and raising her children.
That was a terrible man, I hope you and your family can heal from this in the future, ignore horrible comments too.
“You gotta watch out for those stupid smart people”- Dan Bongino. 😂
What about the smart stupid people? Say people who insist there’s a hell awaiting you if you don’t share their same beliefs.
Kevin Samuels was doing his part to address this in the black community. Any man would no well to check out his CZcams channel despite having died.
Still, he wouldn't never talk about the deep down sinister reasons.
These problems were apparent decades ago! The only reason this is being brought up now is because now it is effective a certain people.
Black males push pump and dump culture, refuse to educate themselves and destroy everything they touch. My Black male father destroyed our family. I'll never forgive or forget what he did.
men understood Samuels. women hated him which meant he was telling the truth.
@@allwillberevealed777 deep down sinister reasons? Expand on this. Reasons like?
@@SiccDeville The truth like “80% of black women are having children with 20% of black men.” We know that’s false because by 40, 80% of black men in the US are fathers so who are they having children with every child is not biracial. or was it that “50% of black men are childless” again 60% of black men over 30 are fathers and 80% over 40 are fathers. So who was he talking about 20 somethings? Just FYI black men and women parent children at the same rate black men like other men have their children a few years later than women on average. Or maybe it’s “Women are needed to keep a society going.” Kevin Samuels was a charlatan, you need to look no further than his prior videos targeting men that were never watched by the way, in which he totally contradicted himself. It’s a shame that black men need to hear what’s wrong with black women to feel good about themselves. If he were the leader you say he was, he would’ve been focused on gang violence or starting a mentorship program for young men. How do black men change the state of their existence if they focus on what women are doing or not doing?!?
He starts out blaming feminism and that is a very small part. Bring me on this show. I’ve just written two books on fatherhood. What we are not going to do is just make feminism the scapegoat. It’s bs Fatherhood is the solution and the problem.
“The Left is Peter Pan, the Left is embracing IMMATURITY.”
And they all believe that Capitalism is the reason why utopia isn't happening right now. Evil white men and capitalism.
Blame left for everything.
Best part… Adam teaching and “toughening up” the next generation. God help us.
Everything this gentleman says is right.
As a single father who fully believes that fathers are devalued in our society, I have to say that it's VERY unfortunate that Prager almost solely focuses on toxic feminism and secularism here. The problem isn't the college-educated woman who decides that she doesn't need a husband and ends up wanting to have a child. Those things can play a role, but the bigger problem is that people have sex irresponsibly and that society, through its devaluing fatherhood lets too many fathers off the hook and doesn't demand and expect involvement. That transcends left and right.
Adam telling someone to toughen up is hilarious.
I had a great father. We did not always agree but he was there at least.😍
The stats. are mind-boggling something is VERY wrong with how kids are being taught and raised today!
The US has the highest rate of children living in a single parent household at 23%
Compared to the word average at 7% with China's 3% and India's 4%
80% of single-parent homes are led by single mothers
Father present at home only spends about 30 minutes per week in 1on1 conversations with his son
For comparison, the same boy on average will spend about 44 hours per week watching television playing video games, and surfing the internet.
90% of all homeless and runaway children, 63% of suicide 85% of children and teens with behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes
Roughly 70% of teenage pregnancies come from women raised in fatherless homes and the same women have significantly higher abortion rates
Fatherless kids are 20 times more likely to be incarcerated in 11 times more likely to exhibit violent behavior
Prager is a beacon of truth. He is true in his words
No he is a Jew.
I'm English, 60 yrs old 7 kids. Working class. What I see regularly is feral kids who do not care largely from fatherless homes and this is in the white community. They struggle at school have a more violent disposition and are likely to desert the kids they have. I disagree with the feminist angle and would point to the explosion of drug use and high unemployment that occurred in the 70's which created a generation of one parent families followed by another
