Forum:Is there a higher percent of uninvolved fathers in your are because of the antiquated beliefs and unfair implimentation of the child custody system?

After hearing if the high rate of uninvolved fathers of this community from a member if this community and then having to witness the local divorce and child custody system. I was acutely aware of an antiquated sentiment that seemed to hold men in a very low regard when caring for their children. I was wondering if this sentiment that men can't take care of children and therefore get unequal participation in the granting of custody is prevalent. I ask because in my state we have men who get custody of their children equally or totally. I personally witnessed the male in my family being instructed like an incompetent in the care of his child. Being a pediatric nurse, I told them " I think we got this" but I still felt the system is very antiquated towards men in your area...Just Asking
