Changes in economic status, social standing, educational attainment.
You cannot tar a whole section of society with one brush.
The breakdown of the family has been happening over many years, but you have to add the whole social stratification of what has gone before to fully understand whatis happening in the now.
Your very black and white views are quite disconcerting.

it does in the end come down the some basic truths, mainly that the law favors mothers over fathers which ends up corrupting the system and destroying families

as for you being disconcerted that is insignificant in the bigger picture....its Not as disconcerting as the millions more broken homes and fatherless children who on average have far less opportunities in life. still you being disconcerted is clearly more important than the millions of fatherless children
