However, for this to be taken seriously, there is a word missing that is very important: MAY. Those things MAY happen. They may not happen. They may also happen to girls who HAVE fathers. Every - EVERY - situation is different. Your author will NEVER convince me that the daughter of Jodie Foster, a single woman with no live-in male companion, is less happy or less well-adjusted than the daughter of John Wayne Gacy, a full-time father. There are way way way too many generalizations and broad-brushed statements for the piece to have scientific validity.
Why don't you just read the book and see what the "experts" say. It's possible you could purchase the book for less than $3.

I have to disagree. Every child deserves both father and mother. You know, God knew what He was doing when He created both. If He didn't think children needed a father (or mother), I'm sure He'd have formed them in such a way that they didn't need each other to procreate.
