I'm not particularly one to defend my gender (in fact my opinion of most males is pretty low), but there are plenty of fucked up mothers out there too. The tradition of neglectful fathers is certainly stronger, but a lot of the changes in society that have given women more "freedom" outside of child rearing have led to their children being a lower priority.
Yeah, my son is awesome. My biggest priority in life is to do everything I can to make his childhood a good and fulfilling experience. Unfortunately sending him to a weekend in Dubai for Women's Studies sessions with Auntie Knox is a bit out of the budget though.
