Call your mom today. Hug your child. Tell them you love them. Be proactive.

Why do you read so much into what I wrote? I said nothing about values, so get of the victim kick, no one is attacking you. I simply think the breakdown of the traditional family has caused many of our ills. I'm not sure how you can disagree with that.
Johnny has two mommies is, I am sure, a very empowering thing in the lesbian community but it is not as good for the child as a traditional mother/father family. A single mother raising her child alone may make her courageous and prove her strength of character but but it is not as good for the child as a traditional mother/father family. A kid brought up in a joint custody/broken home is a tough situation that you can make the best of, but it is not as good for the child as a traditional mother/father family.
Etc....Etc....
Yes I know some mother/father families are bad environments, so save me the examples as we are dealing with averages here, something you need to do when discussing welfare of a hundred million children.
There is no hatred nor ill will in my words, only rational deduction and a genuine concern for kids.
