Not a hard and fast rule, but... Statistically, better outcomes are achieved in a two-parent household. Throw poverty and a culture that embraces violence on top of it and... well you get what you get. The majority of death row inmates come from non-intact families, for example.
If I remember, I'll take a picture next time I'm in the area. Very clearly listed if I recall right on the gates as general rules of the facility
By the way nothing personal, but the vast majority of prison inhabitants had a single commonality of a fatherless home.
It's gettin shot in here...Thank god Nelly is still performing!

No worries, I was at the pub having some beer and typing up a philosophical existential reply but got a phone call lol
Lots of people can be good mentors to help raise/guide youth. Teachers, coaches, pastors, extended family, close neighbors, etc. but none of them can completely fill the gap of a well functioning father and mother. As a teacher, it is quite obvious from an early age the kids who are clearly not getting enough parental guidance/support, but you can't fix every kid in the short amount of time that you have to work with them, only try to show them the light toward a better future, and it is up to them to follow that path or not, which, when you live with crap at home, that can be darn near impossible.
I was there Friday and paid particular attention to the signs at the gate. Among a list of a dozen prohibited items and actions, the only thing that applied to guns was "No Weapons". Signs do not have the force of law in Oregon. The most they could do is trespass you if they discovered you carrying with a CHL. At some point SB554 will be in effect and Lane County may pass an anti-concealed carry ordinance. At that time I believe a much more elaborate set of signs detailing the statute(s) you would be violating will be required to be posted. For now, as far as I can tell, CC with a permit is not an automatic violation.
The short explanation is that this kid and millions like him did not have a male role model who would kick his butt when he got too full of himself. He and his cohorts never learned the lesson that there is always somebody bigger and meaner than you are, and you can't always do exactly as you please.
Facts.
Oh, and you don't get "extra lives" and "respawn" when you're killed…. and that you'd wish for death when you realize bullets break bones, and blow huge holes on their exit.
But if that knee were somewhere else, they will give you a statue and name roads after your "heroic" acts.
I tried reading that and my head just about popped off. It's like CA all over again.
I think that having an abusive father will mess a kid up big time, not the absence of one. I've seen it.
