i read an article this morning about the plight of fatherlessness in our nation. the number of single moms in our culture is staggering. it is a problem that screams with a loud voice and has gathered the attention of lawmakers, civic leaders, school districts, and just about every other part of society. i don’t mean to cheapen this problem, though, but i want to offer another observation.
as bad as this problem is, i wonder why we don’t have people standing up and screaming about the atrocities of dads who don’t show up to their kid’s games…and dads who work long hours to provide stuff that money can buy, but seem to avoid providing the things that money can’t buy…and dads who don’t date their kid’s moms anymore…and dads who expect the church to train their kids in matters of discipleship and spirituality…and dads who communicate more with the television than they do to their own kid’s hearts?
is father’s day a good day for you?
