Assume all you want, the fact is the title of this thread is should he step down, so I am not condemning him the thread itself is saying that in the title, why should he step down? The thread is asking people to judge the situation, maybe it should have been a simple yes or no pole? The fact is he is either the problem, or he isn't, either way explain how quiting will help? I am assuming you have a problem with everyone who says he should step down on this one because asking him to step down is essentially saying he ain't getting the job done as a parent and should spend more time trying to get it right wouldn't you say?
Yea yea, we have heard it all, there's plenty of studies that prove other wise, teach your kids from an early age how to live, and act, and when they get older they wont part far from it, a parent BY Far has the greatest influence on his child's life, peer groups have more influence on a child when the lack of parental guidance does not provide them with a proper foundation and structure in their lives, so spare me all the hippie liberal nonsense designed to take responsibility away from every one so we can all sleep at night. Please. The amount of time spent with your children isn't as important as the quality of that time that is spent with them!
In response to the first paragraph I gathered from the tone of your post that you were condemning his parenting. If that's not the case I retract what I said. It seems a lot of people have been doing that and I think they should back off Reid, because they know nothing about what goes on in his house. Maybe he's a bad parent but my point is we don't know and can't know. So sorry if I misunderstood you.
In response to your second paragraph, I agree. All academic studies are nonsense, cooked up by hippies, and to cite them is also evidence of hippie sympathies. Everyone knows that kids are bad because the parents screwed up. Academic research to the contrary is really part of a liberal conspiracy to help people sleep, because you know liberals love coffee and they drink it so much they have insomnia. If I'd known I was picking a fight with a genius I never would have responded to your post. Please go easy on me professor.
