Quote: “study…found that black fathers who aren’t in the home are much more likely to sustain regular contact with their children than absentee white fathers, or for that matter, fathers of any other ethnic group.”
This finding does not address the overall incidence of black fathers who “aren’t in the home.” If a much larger proportion of black fathers “aren’t in the home” it shouldn’t be surprising to find a larger proportion by default “sustain regular contact,” which I suppose could be construed as simply the easiest way to avoid financially supporting those children.
