Tell me, does that "single parent" include a physician to heal the child from 
illnesses, police officers and courts who protect that child from danger by 
the lunatic fringe of society who covets them more than life itself, (and so 
on and so on, ad nausea)?  
 
Somehow, I think you're taking a very narrow view of the role society plays 
n
the development of a child.  
 
A caring and responsible parent is the key to this "village."  Without that 
role model, who does the child base his/her development of affection towards? 
Also, one last comment on this point, what does the statement: Anyone can be 

father, but it takes a real man to be a daddy.   mean to you?  Think about 
t.
