lmao are they really that afraid of the obvious hypothesis that there might be important differences in the personal characteristics of the divorced vs. widowed population that may explain some of these outcomes?

The actual answer is, as usual, genetics. There's a bunch of studies that looked into outcomes of children whose parent(s) died in accidents and found basically no differences from their peers, while orphans abandoned by their shitty parents end up having shitty lives themselves. This is also why you should only adopt children whose parents died in a freak accident.

No you don't. Those orphans have bad-luck genetics, and you don't want that. Chances are the orphan whose parents died in a car crash will himself die in some Final Destination accident.

I wonder if you're even allowed to ask about stuff like this when considering adopting a child.

tl;dr life insurance payouts, unlike child support, have enough to pay the kid AND mother's shopping

My childhood neighborhood has a wiki article that says:
and I have to say that the differences I nooticed between the 3 basic types of single mothers are significant. You could give most a million cash and they wouldn't even have stable housing after a decade.

i only skimmed part of it but she kind of seems to be saying "why won't other people take care of my entire life and my childs entire life?"

Look at her replies. It's all someone bring me casseroles, someone watch my kid, someone pay for my kid's afterschool activities.

Thats how foids view men. Avarage foid is no diffrent from child. All they want is man to take care everything for them. Sadness they feel when their man dies is from fact that it affecta their life. Who will now do x, y and z for me.
I saw excatly that when my dad died. Both my mom and sister still cry because my dad isnt doing everything for them. And he died 10 year ago.
Also both of them are woman can do what ever man can do feminist.

In contrast my poor grandmother was never the same when her husband died, they had been married since she was 16 and she was in her early 80s when he passed, and only made it another year.
She basically took care of him the last few years of his life too, and when he passed she was so distraught she could barely function.
Maybe its because she was a literal boomer, but her undying love for that old curmudgeon gave a young neighbor hope.

My grandma didnt like my grandpa. She was full of regret when her first fiancee died. So she was all about how her life would have been better with other dude.
Them grandpa died and she never recovered. Sudendly he was greatest man ever to live. Love of her life. Basically she didnt realise how good she had it until he was gone.

While also being under the impression that somehow this happens for men? She's literally experiencing fatherhood for the first time and she hates it so much that she can't even understand that that's just the regular pressure dads are put under.

You say that, but around a foid, be paranoid.
In the comments:
So she's clearly got the time to be doing that.
The isolation isn't externally inflicted like she'd have you believe. She's unwilling to swallow her pride to prevent her kids suffering. She's also in desperate need of a strong community to support her while directly opposing anything that might create one
This is indeed true. After all, with that work schedule she also gets no breaks during work in which to research things on her phone. Also she has no support groups despite working hours that mean she can't be looking after her own kids during a lot of normal times, so what's the deal there?
Sorry Carp, this is yet another case of
and she suckered you like the simp you are

I donβt believe women are intellectually or emotionally equal to men and the suggestion that they are is destructive. Expecting her to have mental parity with men is absurd.

I wonder if the high standards set by the literal top tier maternal figures I had growing up is why I have such unfair standards for foids now.
Perhaps only the handful of women who helped raise me were worth a darn, and expecting the others to be even comparable is discrimination.

Women are great and theyβre all worth a darn (unless fat or otherwise subhuman), itβs not demeaning to suggest that theyβre generally less intelligent or sensible than men. Women are better-suited to a huge number of tremendously important things than men are. This isnβt a knock at either gender.

Yes, you and me understand this, but try explaining this to a woman without her getting upset.
Feminism convinced women they actually wanted to be men.

It's fair to say there are more smart men than women.
But there are still a large chunk of women who are very intelligent(it's a gap of about 7 to 15% in the amount) and should be allowed to pursue science and engineering and things like that. Women aren't mostly stupid or anything. Also women who don't want to do STEM stuff (most women) shouldn't be shamed for just wanting to have a family either.
Edit: basically women tend to have more average IQ for some reason while men have a wider range from r-slurred to savant.

That thing about the single mom commune actually makes a lot of sense, but you'd have to do a lot of vetting to make sure child predators didn't slip into the commune... or people like me who'd prey on the single moms
