That's uh.. pretty harsh. My parents divorced and it was my father's fault that my Mother ended up being considered a single Mom as he did not want custody or to pay child support. Being taken away from my parents and possibly my sister would have ruined me. They were all I had. I'm sure you have a perfectly logical reason for stating this, but that reason would have done little to comfort me had my sister and I been removed from our family due to my parents' divorce. The notion just... disturbs me. I know families in which the parent is widowed, losing your parent and then being forcibly taken from the other..
I can see your point. I don't want to sound harsh, as I would also be in a similar situation as you if this happened, but sometimes the bad comes before the good. It's horrible, I know.
I think in the long run it would work greatly, but as you have explained, the trip to that road would be bumpy.
Your analogies are empty justifications, Duz. Pretty words. There's a big difference between the theoretical and the pratice and the practice of forcibly removing children from their families and the assumption that a single parent family can only be unstable is truly unjustifiable even in the sense of statistical data regarding likely outcomes for the children
There are already hundreds of thousands of kids waiting to be adopted in my country who will never be. To take kids out of their home due to the archaic belief that only a traditional nuclear family can serve as a stable and supportive family is by no stretch of any logic or rationale I know of sane
People should be required to have a parenting licence to have kids.

I'll have to agree to disagree here.
