...Since more than 25% of Canadian children live in a single-parent family at some point before they are 10 years old. Sorry for the interruption, you are free to resume your ignorant ramblings.great bear said:Moet, part of the problem is too many young black children are being brought up in single parent homes. There is a tendency in the male black community to father children then accept little responsibility for the outcome. Without a postive father/male image growing up and in the home it makes it difficult for young children of any race to have a positive self image. There is even a term for these women "mother child", that is used in the black community to describe women who have had a child then been abandoned by the father.
What % of those are low income family? What % are black?Big Michael said:...Since more than 25% of Canadian children live in a single-parent family at some point before they are 10 years old. Sorry for the interruption, you are free to resume your ignorant ramblings.

This sounds like BS to me. Unless you can back this statement with a few trustworthy links.Big Michael said:...Since more than 25% of Canadian children live in a single-parent family at some point before they are 10 years old.
It could be a case of statistics turned a certain way to make a point while technically being true. Perhaps instances where there is a divorce and one parent gains sole custody is counted as a single parent living situation, which would easily fill those numbers in my mind. But I think it is likely that the 25% figure is right as generally stable Canadian families today are opting for single children and it is only single mothers with the host of other problems having large numbers of kids (usually with different fathers). That would shift the numbers towards these kinds of situations merely because these families have greater numbers of total children than the traditional family stuations with only one or two kids.mmouse said:This sounds like BS to me.

The best places in the States are pretty safe. The average place is hte states is pretty safe. What I agree is that the worst places in the states are MUCH worse than anything we've got anywhere in Canada.bishop said:Between 1995 to 2002 my best bud lived on driftwood, I would come up and hang with him every weekend. Honestly I never saw any problems @ Jane-Finch, it is low income for sure, but it was not like some zoo full of rampaging gangsters looking to butt rape you.
Honestly, The worst place in Toronto is likely more safe than the best place in the States.
Divorce resulting in a parent with sole custody absolutely is a single parent family situation. Does it really make that much difference whether dad disappears before or after the child is born? Divorce implies after, but what's the big difference? The child is living with a single parent; though potentially getting the *support* (money) from two parents.The Daulfin said:It could be a case of statistics turned a certain way to make a point while technically being true.

Agreed - if you took some shitty trailer park and stuck it in the GTA, it would be a nastier place than Jane and Finch.fuji said:One of the implications is that you'd rather live in a neighbourhood filled with poor immigrants rather than a neighbourhood filled with poor "majority culture" families.
That is for sure. There is nothing wrong with poor people, the problem is that many of the things that cause bad behaviour (stupidity, mental illness), also cause poverty, which makes it appear that poverty causes crime.fuji said:One of the implications is that you'd rather live in a neighbourhood filled with poor immigrants rather than a neighbourhood filled with poor "majority culture" families.
Not screaming, never called anyone a racist in my life. Ignorant oh yeah!!fuji said:What % of those are low income family? What % are black?
I am willing to bet that many/most of those 25% of single parent situations are poor and uneducated, and that blacks, for various reasons, are over-represented in the group. If it's 25% of Canadians as a whole, I bet it's a lot higher percent among the black population alone.
Screaming 'racism' and 'ignorant' every time someone starts to look at some of the problems that are keeping groups like blacks and natives from reaching their full potential is just sweeping the problems under the rug, hoping they go away, and in the long run actually helping to perpetuate them.
Those who point these problems out are really part of the solution. Those who deny actual real problems are part of the problem.
