20.3 million - more than HALF OF CHILDREN from broken homes have NO part-time living with their father (U.S. 2010)
Much of this is the result of child abuse by the corrupt judges that allow custodians to block real father-child relationships. 20.3 million - this is a seriously HARMFUL tragedy that judges can change using the existing laws that give them unbelievable power and freedom.
A report on 2010 U.S. data presents results in deceptive ways always favoring women in broken homes and hiding the real facts. This Pew report states that OF ALL children (in unbroken and broken homes), "27% (some 20.3 million) were living apart from their fathers" (apart = no part-time living). That means the important hidden fact is that more than HALF OF ALL CHILDREN from broken homes have NO part-time living with their father. This is childabuse by the corrupt judges to allow custodians to cut off so MANY MILLIONS of children from their fathers. The percent of fathers that leave willingly are single digit (and unreported). Of all children in broken homes, 50% spend some time living with their fathers, and the hidden information is that more than 40% of all children in broken homes, most of the MANY MILLIONS of children, have their fathers driven away or minimized without any part-time living because of the behavior of the custodian and roadblocks set by corrupt judges. Most of the 40% of broken home children have fathers that understand and/or have experienced that the court's support of a real father-child relationship is nearly hopeless if the custodian opposes it. And these fathers don't have the money or knowledge to achieve any change.
(Today, because of the large percentage of unmarried parents, the most brief and clear terms for 'together' and 'separated /divorced' homes are 'unbroken' and 'broken,' which has been used for decades.)
Regardless of how one parent sees it, most children feel their home is broken when one of their natural parents isn't with them full time.
