Fixing Fractured Families... thoughts

The amazing US is struggling.  Through all of the presidential debates let's talk about what is being avoided.
1. Immigration levels are at all time highs.  This is not Hispanic.  This is other cultures.  Middle East, Asian, African, and some Hispanic.
2. Cultural morass ensues.  How do you immigrate and integrate into anarchy?  There is a loss of moral center.  Our churches are failing and flailing.  Our solutions don't work.
3. Families are fractured.  41% of kids are born into unmarried situations.  40% of kids have no father in the home.   Lifelong dads.  Kids need 'em.  It takes two to tango.  It takes a good balance of father and mother.  Not to be too simplistic, but no body is born without the contribution of male and female.  It is a natural, creative design.  Humans are not asexual.  Abandonment of children by fathers is a tragedy.
4. Violence is high, especially among people in their 20s and 30s.
5. Drugs, alcohol, legal and illegal addictions are rampant.
6. Jobs will not fix this.  Political rhetoric will not fix this.  Good deals will not fix this.  Fixing fractured families will fix this.  The government does horrible in fixing fractured families. That is the job of kingdom minded people.

Think!  Study! Pray!  Act!
