yeah i would say so. when a child of a spacific gender is with a single parent, it is best when that parent is the same gender of the child allowing the parent to synthasize or empathize with that child. it seems to me that it would be alot more healthy that way.

Quite possibly, but it would really depend on the household dynamic. In many homes, parents don't fit the traditional roles imposed by society. There are situations in which a mother does leave the home, and the fathers do a wonderful job raising the family.

it actually is.. beacuse a women understands a women. but a man cant understand a women..so it will be difficult for a father to raise a girl with no mother..but it can work out once your used to it...

Yes it is more difficult, i was a teenager when my parents split up but thankfully i had my mother who is loving caring and a lot more understanding about things, also i think a young teenage girl needs her mother as its time for puberty etc and its a lot easier to talk to your mother about those things than a male ie father.

It depends on what the relationship was like. A friend from high school always came to school with bruises. She was very honest and told people that her mom started drinking, was abusive and several times had to sleep in her car a few blocks from her house because her dad worked nights and she was afraid to be in the home alone with her mom. We (friends and a counselor) convinced her to tell her dad who didn't know about the abuse. He confronted the mother and she packed up and left and never came back. My friend was the happiest person in the world after that. Her dad was a good man and took excellant care of her after that. She was glad to see her mom go.

I'm guessing it is on average but I emphasize "on average". There are a lot of pretty worthless people out there more toxic than nourishing.
