Its a chicken and egg thing. Is it the father's fault for not being a father to their children, or is it the mother's fault for getting impregnated by a trifling man? I tend to blame the women more, as I have more hope for them to better themselves, and men won't better themselves unless they are forced to by women. This is where these problems begin. Black women need to learn to respect themselves more. It's simple ladies, stop having sex with gang-banging-drugdealing-no-working-lazy-@ssed, LOSERS who have no moral compass and don't care about you. Choose someone who can be a "partner" in your lives instead of the 1st random loser you bump into at Da Club.
