I am the author of The Step-Father’s Step-Son. The book is available through Family Matters Publishing at www.stepfathersstepson.com and Amazon.com. The book covers subjects such as: adultery, family, relationships, and parenting. The book is written primarily for the first family and the children of the parents of the first family.

High Crime Neighborhoods

“High crime neighborhoods are characterized by high concentrations abandoned by fathers.” (heritage.org) “The Root Cause of Violent Crime: The Breakdown of Marriage, Family, and Community” by Patrick F. Fagan, Ph.D.

God never gave mothers or fathers the freedom to do as they please. He gave them the responsibility to be there for their Family. A man’s family starts with his first family being first. If there ever is a second wife, she stays second along with her children. There is a structural order within God’s families. If you would like to know more about family structure, buy a copy of my book, “The Step-Father’s Step-Son: A Story for Women”. http://www.stepfathersstepson.com

Where are our fathers?

According to an article published on heritage.org, “Over the past thirty years, the rise in violent crime parallels the rise in families abandoned by fathers.”
“The Root Causes of Violent Crime: The Breakdown of Marriage, Family, and Community” by Patrick F. Fagan, Ph.D.

When are we going to wake up? When are men and women going to stop breaking up families and moving in with parents? It is time that we start loving our first families again! Our mothers and children are suffering so much. Fathers come home!

What about the rest?

A few men never abandon their first family. Some men abandon their children immediately after ejaculation, others abandon their children before they are born, others abandon their children during the early years of their life, and still others abandon their families at later dates. When a first wife and her children are abandoned, it is very likely that they were abandoned because of another woman. Does anyone;the other women, our husbands, or our fathers; truly love when they do this? Adultery has nothing to with love! The ones that stay on the narrow path with their first family are the ones that love!

There is no such thing as a Step-Parent!

In God’s family, there are only parents.

Jesus said, “Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery, and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.” (Luke 16:18)

Jesus said, “And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.” (Mark 10:12)

If your family has “step-parents” living in the house then you are not living with your family. Furthermore, you have put your children into a very confusing and possibly dangerous situation! Do not commit adultery against your spouse and children by bringing unrelated people into the family home!

Who is more important…your children or a Step-Parent?

“Being raised in single parent families lets children know that they are the main priority in their parents’ lives, yet they are not treated as though they are the center of everyone’s universe. This healthy approach helps to prepare kids for the way the world works.” http://www.spaoa.org

Children living in broken homes with step-parents and their children, feel more like visitors than members. They are not anyone’s main priority.
