Father's Day Crisis, as the US Leads World in ‘Fatherlessness'
[Red States] As we head into Father’s Day, it’s important to remember the millions of young Americans who don’t have dads in the house and who never had a male role model to look up to. According to Fox News, more than 18.5 million children are "fatherless," and the United States leads the entire world in that category.
