Speaking on these issues, like in japan they would come up to me and say we have more in the classrooms then and i started seeing that ultimately in the 14 years of research i did for the crisis that there were about 56 of the largest developed nations having problems where all of the academic subjects were in the reading and writing. Why is it the developed nations and dice all the developed nations had enough survival they did do much worse the children that had almost no father involvement did much worse and overtook a single mother groups they found the same thing was true and understood the ten causes of the crisis that the single biggest cause the crisis raised by. You state the crisis number one of education. Guest including reading and writing dropping out to a much greater degree and in the old days when they pointed this out they said the biggest crisis america has to worry about when is the cyber warfare and the other is the crisis with young men. The problem with education is the Education System is not preparing boys for jobs of technology nearly as quickly. 99. 6 of them get jobs they dont have any channeling into the vocational education. Vocational education has been cut back when it should be increased in its focus so boys are experiencing a lack of purpose into dropping out of high school and the Unemployment Rate in their 20s is about 22 to 23 girls are doing better but in some ways they do not have guards are not benefiting from the normal evolution of girls as doing better. Girls have we are living in the era where i was extremely supportive of the feminist Movement Encouragement but now when girls and boys have become men and women with children, often they say i have three choices. Option one is to raise children, option two, raise money. We have these thousands of women that want to be successful in the career but they also want to have well raised children in a good marriage and what they are missing is an enormous percentage of men out there literally 49 of men who are very interested in taking care of children even fulltime but women dont tend to be looking for men who want to raise children fulltime so we have a gap between women who want to focus on their career, but they dont want a man to focus on raising the children should we be surprised that a former board member now is attending the freedom fest one should be surprised when the crisis came out by pr people put it out to hundreds and hundreds of liberal mainstream networks and hundreds of conservative networks and freedom libertarian Oriented Networks and 95 of the interviews came to an enormous responsiveness from the conservatives and libertarian networks is among the democrats and liberals there is enormous focus on if women want to raise children by themselves they should be able to do that. The conservatives and libertarians have an enormous focus on my guard a liberal is understanding the value of a family and the value of a father, this is unbelievable. And the truth is that this is where the democrats are completely missing out. Fathers, i found out in a research they are much more valuable then i knew when i began researching i never would have said the more a father is roughhousing with the children the more empathetic they are likely to be. I would never have connected them to be with roughhousing or empathy with a greater propensity for children to be assertive but not aggressive. I would never have created a roughhousing with a greater propensity. I would never have realized the bond that is created by roughhousing allows fathers to enforce boundaries without the children being so resentful or enforced. When dad said you cant stick your elbow in your sisters by some of the children say okay, then they go back to the roughhousing and forget about it because it is what psychologists call Emotional Intelligence under fire and they forget that they are supposed to be behaving and empathetic to their sisters feelings so they go back and try to win by pushing their brother or sister a site and then they say okay i gave you a warning and now no more roughhousing. They will get what they want with roughhousing and that is what set an example with the parenting for having much more ability to focus on postponing the gratification you talk in your book about the 1972 being a watershed year. Year. Its one of the years where the other Board Members and myself i started to see the research but said when there was a divorce and fathers were not involved that was a problem so they were on the rise in this country. The board of directors now that wait a second, we think a lot of our members want the option with the children having equal rights with a author and mother we are going to lose them in yours. We have a lot of fish to fry. Custody isnt the only fish we have to try so we cant afford to chart our members in different directions. I understand that politically. I ran for the governor of california. I am not politically naive. But if that is not the right thing to do for our children then that is a morally unjustifiable position. Host the crisis has become a political issue. They are aware they are aware of the prison population is they are aware certainly of isis so i am hoping that im educating but also working with the Trump White House and administration to create a White House Council on boys and men so there will be some issues on the public agenda in addition to the girls and women. For eight years. I have a problem especially when it is four times the rate shoving aside of the destructive behavior on so many fronts. I was getting my doctorate and why you teaching at Rutgers University and the Womens Movement surfaced in 1969 and i started talking about the Womens Movement as a Political Movement and they said you have a fire in your belly when you talk about this, so i was able to persuade my committee to allow them to change my topic. I began to see that it was much more could flex and i was being told they earn more money than women and theyve never had childrehavechildren and have nen married and it is by 17 in comparison that have never been married so i said to myself this is interesting and besides, if i knew i could hire a woman to do exactly the same type of work that a man is doing for a dollar, i wouldnt be able to survive, i would never hire a man. To quote from your book we often about the disproportionate percentage of young black men in prison may reflect the racism, the rarely contemplate whether the other half of black men that it may also reflect or sexism increase in the 93 of population and the last halfcentury means the way in the last halfcentury it is leading to a deterioration of their mental health. What i found this whe is whee isnt a lot of involvement or School System encouragement to have good role models theres a lot of female teachers. So the testosterone ends up being channeled constructively rather than construct deadly so we have a great lack of concern for these issues. To be a man you have to prepare yourself to be disposable in more or hazardous jobs in the workplace or work 60 or 70 hours a week at the executive level position. When you train people to die in order to love them, you cant be emotionally attached to their health. It is training for a law life or opposed to Emotional Intelligence which is training to be able to express your feelings, fear and talk about them in a healthy way without whining about them and so this is a great opportunity for boys in the future but they dont have their own sense of purpose. So to have to discipline to achieve a variety of senses of purpose in their life then they become a failure to launch and ashamed of themselves and they become angry at people that are not paying attention to them. They get withdrawn into video games and want to be rejected so pornography is access to a variety of attractive women without fear at a price we can afford and then they get evicted. Dopamine goes up when they meet a woman that is may be interested in being sexual with them shes treated like an object so she withdrawals which convinces the boy that hes a loser into the worstcase scenario that is the background of the massive shooter or the boy says in a desperate way i will make people regret. You have statistics in your book in the case of massive shooters or any other that ive done the research very thoroughly. Is that sense of purpose that you referenced earlier in our dna . Seesyndicates a good question ai think the answer is yes and here is the reason why. They know that women as a rule. It happens by the females having sex and reproducing with the alpha male. So you have all of these competing to be sexual with you and reproduce with. And so, they are almost always as unattractive that have the biggest so the sense of purpose is wanting to reproduce into the attractive, so in order to become a biggest rack loses 32, 33 of its Nutrient Minerals to get that so he has to immediately get rid of it otherwise hes highly likely to die if the winter comes too soon and he isnt able to replenish all those nutrients before the money comes. So, that is a story of masculinity. The weakness is the facade of strength. It was the purpose of creating the next generation. What we do they start showing signs of fidgeting or so on and say probably it is adhd when what we should be doing is saying they need more recess at school. Its not until recently they did research and its effectiveness doesnt take away from a child being able to study effectively or does it add t up to a child being able to study effectively and to be found for each minute the recess actually what was more functional for a child doing better on tests than each minute studying for tests now this is true for both boys and girls but its more for boys. They have responded to those that are fidgety. There is an emphasis on them doing things rather than rehearsing the exhibit learning. So we have given them medication and we also find that adhd when children are raised predominantly by dad, only 15 have adhd. When children are raised predominantly by mom, 30 have adhd and one of the reasons for that is that data is far more likely to be engaged in this boundary enforcement wil rule wh the children so they set the boundaries the same way and say to the children you cant have ice cream until you finish your peas. They will try to have as few as possible to get their ice cream. The difference is in the way they attempt to enforce boundarietend to enforce boundae okay i know you dont want your peas that have this many more and she will take a knife into separate half, then you can have your ice cream for now. I tried it can i have my ice cream now and on says i dont want to get in to a fight over a few peas. And dad says no you cant until after youve finished. So what the children are learning with their dad is they cant have what they want to have covered the ice cream until they focused their attention doing what they need to do the children raised by dad are more likely therefore to have been postponed gratification is the single biggest prick or success but its also the biggest predictor being able to rehearse for a play or basketball game or finish your home work without getting distracted. That is what makes boys and girls feel they are alive and it prevents them from going into depression. When they dont have to success, they tend to go down a slippery slope in a worstcase scenario move to depression, anger, withdrawal, alienation and Mass Shootings. He has inside of him the invitee brightness to be able to launch but he doesnt have that postponed gratification to be able to do what his dream is. But when a boy or girl is encouraged to go after their dream but doesnt have the discipline to do the play and we heard the music he doesnt fulfill his dream and when they do not fulfill their dream, they become disappointed in themselves, ashamed of themselves. Were you disappointed do you consider yourself a liberal . Punic mostly liberal. And because i feel part of what i want to become a part of what i thought i was part of to be liberal with caring and compassionate wanting to be sure people were included. I never wanted liberalism to stand for we want freedom for women i want them to have a choice whether or not to have children but the second they do, theyve made a free choice for their children to be put first. You dont have to do that in life now that you have Birth Control but if you do that you choose to give up the choice of making your personal freedom more important than your childrens healthy life by estimate is a trillion dollars per year at the cost. Think about the Homeland Security cost, if you think about the cost of prisons and increase in the prison population. If they think about the Mass Shootings into the security that we are engaged in to finance that they are far more likely to be getting welfare payments as a result of not having jobs themselves in having children out of wedlock they have trillions of dollars over a period o of gears a bit of a trillion dollars per year that we spend on the crisis. Who is your coauthor . We both live in a town just outside of san francisco. We both knew about each other in a distorted taking about 500 walks together and that is what made this such a good book because it had the best of his ideas into the best of my ideas. In absolute cheap yes when it comes to nutrition and adhd and shes written five wonderful he has written five wonderful chapters on how to prevent adhd and reverse it if your son does have it. Host boys and girls raised in families with authors present have higher iq scores than those where fathers are absent. How do you know that . Guest keys looked at control groups of boys that didnt have a type of father involvement into that father involvement is true not only in the early years but in premature birth boys and girls who have fathers tending to them when they are born prematurely are released much more quickly, they develop iq scores that are higher so every single age i want to make it clear its not that mothers are not important, the children who do best half brother tsmotheredbrother to bor involvement. They have what i call checks and balance parenting. The mother says its too soon for you to climb the tree may be a couple of years. Dad says let them climb the tree it will be good for her or him so they start negotiating and say you cant climb the tree but not beyond this point is inspired away gives me that a cell phone so you dont get distracted. That negotiation allows the children to be able to make decisions about what risks are appropriate without falling and killing themselves in the process, so they get the best of both worlds by da worlds when dt listen and respect each others traditions and when dad in order to have that happen in addition to listening to mom, they also have to know the benefit of things like roughhousing and claiming the trade. The increase their ability to do Risk Assessment and that is part of what leads to people whove learned how to assess risk and that is part of what allows them to be entrepreneurs, such as protect our daughters so much as it did expect them to become the entrepreneurs is to create unrealistic expectations. By the age of nine there is a 14 reduction in mirrorlike. Guest the longer they are the more they contain the gene that allows your genes to prevent yourself from having cancer or Heart Disease or whatever your biological heritage is. And scientists have found that at the age of nine and they have, the longer if they are longer by like 14 , your Life Expectancy is likely to be about 14 longer so the studies of boys and girls who have a lot of father involvement versus those who didnt they found that of all of the variables they tested for some of the most important single one was father involvement into the children at the age of nine and a half on average were 14 shorter than those that have significant father involvement. But then they divided the male and female children and found when they did not have significant father involvement it was 40 shorter than their sisters leading to a Life Expectancy that would be about 16 or 17 shorter predictably at the age of nine and a half. So, there are thousands of things in the crisis that explained why father involvement is so important. There are many things i do not know which is all the reason they are so much shorter when theres a lack of the involvement. We will be discovering those over the next century. Ive been able to identify 70 Different Things that happen that are either positive or negative for the boys and girls went father involvement. Its one of the crisis slaves imported that one of the others is not even being aware that it is. This is why ive been trying to get the administration to create a council and a on the public agenda other is a National Awareness of th of the private companies and celebrities and professional associations can start to say what is it about what is happening that we with our expertise can be helpful to the device. Host what has been the response from the administration . Guest very helpful. They say they want to be the point person. Very active with republicans of the Libertarian Movement said he would also help. Host what is the pushback working on this . Is a political pushback, what is that . Guest more political than it is for a girl. The reason is they want blogs to have the freedom to raise children with or without dad and they want the mothers to be able to live their whole life to do. They made a mistake with a married man with a very did have a bigger man and want to be able to move out of state to a new location and forget about the biological. I wasnt inherently opposed to that until i found out that was dangerous for the Childrens Development aid by finding that out is saying i wanted to write about that cost me well over 20 to 30 million aid speaking each with costs because they broke from this why you say that women should have the freedom to be able to be fulltime mothers and it doesnt do anything but good for the children. Host what about stepfathers . Guest the problem especially when they are girl children is the stepfather never becomes more than an advisor to the mother. The mother has to be very aware of everyt
