Your argument apes the typical cliche presented by Cultural Marxists for the past 50 years who stated aim is the dissolution of the nuclear family. The idea that divorce should be "easy" because a "bad"marriage harms the children. However the statistic do not show this to be the case. Prior to "no-fault" divorce, there needed to be a valid "A" justification for marriage dissolution. The "A" being one of the following: abuse, adultery, addition, and abandonment. However with no-fault the predominate reason for divorce is the rather narcissistic "dissatisfaction" and the real concerns of children be damned. Rather than try to find some measure of reconciliation, the culture encourage acrimony as well as alimony and the statistic show that children fair much better in a nuclear family than in a split up family usually without fathers.

In addition to divorce you also have the high rate of out of wedlock births. Today in the Black community a whopping 73% of children are born out of wedlock and nearly two-thirds of Black children grow up never having ANY contact with the biological fathers.

As I pointed out in my previous post, the correlation of delinquency and fatherlessness was made 50 years ago in the Moynihan Report. Much of the dysfunction we see today was predicted in this report and this correlates to the rise in criminality and the increase in the prison population.

Prison is the consequence of Cultural Marxism that encourages broken families and fatherlessness and until this is address we cannot look to the system of incarceration to make up for what families should be providing to children.
