The petition
There are currently 7 legislatures backing 50/50 default shared parenting in PA. They require a list of citizens in support of this effort to reduce the amount of single parented children in our state.
Single parented children are:
63% of youth suicides
--U.S. D.H.H.S., Bureau of the Census
85% of all children that exhibit behavioral disorders come from fatherless homes
--Center for Disease Control
80% of rapists motivated with displaced anger --Criminal Justice and Behavior, Vol. 14, p. 403-26
71% of all high school dropouts
--National Principals Association Report on the State of High Schools
70% of juveniles in state operated institutions
--U.S. Dept. of Justice, Special Report Sept., 1988
85% of all youths sitting in prisons
--Fulton County Georgia jail populations & Texas Dept. of Corrections, 1992
Single parented homes needs to be the exception no longer the rule in that it is the worst environment for a child to be raised in. Every child needs a mom and a dad well after romance comes to an end.
