The fact is that it's not easy being a guy these days. There are no real fathers for those kids. And the relationship between the men and women who brought them into the world is going very poorly. The solution to these and manifold other sins and errors in the family, however, is not insurrection. The wife may not cajole, slander, and undermine a husband, much less threaten to divorce, merely because he is sinful or does not meet her expectations.
Marriage is more than romantic arrangement.
In this they are gravely mistaken. Likewise, children stand under covenantal authority of parents. They may not undermine parental authority even if that authority practices drunkenness, unconcern, or tyranny. It is not the prerogative of children, however, to strike their parents, slander them, or abandon their home. Recourse to tyranny and sin in the family is no less available than in the church and state.
