	Fathers’ Day Rerun at Pandagon
		The father is a source of strength, solidity and discipline, the mother an example of nurturing and compassion.
		Fathers are the source of strength for a family, yet paradoxically, a mother’s wishes somehow not only define the family, but the entire concept of masculinity and fatherhood for these fragile stalwarts.
		Jesse’s beef seems to be that fathers have to fall into one of two camps: deadbeat, no account losers like his biological father or “traditional” right-wing patriarchal snakes who seem to crawl out from under their rocks around Father’s Day to spew forth intolerant venom and demand government programs to make everybody be like them.

	A message to my daughters, on Fathers Day 2001
		Fathers Day was always a part of my life and that of all of my friends and relatives my age, and so was being a father.
		Fatherhood was considered to be so important — until the 'sixties — that "family wages" for fathers were part of social policies, even in America, where about 84 percent of corporations had them as part of their wage and salary structures until the time when Fathers Day became a government-sponsored celebration.
		Those that had no fathers were almost without exception fatherless because their fathers had given their lives in the service of their country.

	A Fathers Day Letter (A.D. 2000)
		However, perhaps the greatest single cause of father absence is the legal system, in particular the gender-biased habits of family courts which persist in awarding sole maternal custody in most litigated cases.
		As a result, the father acquiesces to accept the court's standard "visitation" plan, usually 4 days a month or alternate weekends, along with monthly child support to the mother.
		If our courts behaved responsibly and acted truly in the best interests of our children by allowing both their father and mother to be parents to them after divorce rather than eliminating one parent from their lives, then perhaps millions more children in America would have a father with them on Father's Day.
