Very true

I can identify instances of this just in my neighborhood. Out of 18 homes 5 are single family, 3 have step parents, and the rest are either single with no kids or married with kids with one parent as a stay at home parent. The single family and step parent home's kids are always in some form of trouble. Those kids are starving for attention.
