I don't care about a "father figure." The nuclear family is a sexist, outdated structure that needs modification. Does the father always need to work? Does the wife always need to have the same roles of cooking, cleaning, child care, and other roles previously associated with the wife? Does the father need to work, or can he stay home and care for the kids? Does the father need to be the disciplinary figure? Does the mother need to be subordinate to the father? When you refer to "father figure," you refer to the nuclear family structure and obsolete sexist ideas.

The "nuclear family" and "obsolete sexist ideas" are what have been keeping our society and families running together. Most broken families are those like Sentenal mentioned. The father doesn't HAVE to be the disciplinary figure, but if that's the only way things are going to work out well (since families in which the mother is the disciplinary and head figure are few), then I think we should stick to that old moral value to keep things going.
