In the official White House proclamation for Father’s Day, President Obama throws in what looks like a surprisingly casual cheer for same-sex unions, as “two father” families: “nurturing families come in many forms, and children may be raised by a father and mother, a single father, two fathers, a step father, a grandfather, or caring guardian.”
But in his fatherhood mentoring program , announced at the same time, he calls for obtaining fathers for more families.
Doesn’t that mean we need to be spreading out those fathers, instead of letting them bunch up this way?
