The Need of A Father

A lot of you know that I'm reading a book called King Me by Steve Farrar. The one thing I've learned the most from this book is the importance it is for a boy to have his father. Recently I read an e-mail that had a quote from Daniel Patrick Moynihan, a four-term senator who recently passed away.
He said “From the wild Irish slums of the 19th century Eastern seaboard to the riot-torn suburbs of Los Angeles, there is one unmistakable lesson in American history: a community that allows a large number of young men to grow up in broken families, dominated by women, never acquiring any stable relationship to male authority, never acquiring any set of rational expectations about the future -- that community asks for and gets chaos.”
