Category: Strengthening Families and Communities Forum
Published: 08 April 2023

Michael Marshall, Editor Emeritus of UPI explains how progressives routinely ignore the numerous benefits for child welfare of marriage between a man and a woman.  Instead, they focus on whatever makes the two partners of whatever type happy.
Children are the losers in this new paradigm.

Richard Urban, the founder of VisonRoot and Urban Life Training, explains how we can return our communities, society and nation to health.  He features news about the conviction of former Jefferson County, WV health teacher Edward Belmonte, who has been convicted of 13 felonies for having sex with a student.  The same teacher responded to Jefferson County Board of Education Testimony by Richard Urban, saying that abstinence education does not work.  That testimony is included in the show.  Three months later, Belmonte was having sex with a student.

Jamal Johnson taught abstinence-centered sex education in public schools for eleven years.
Here he makes a compelling presentation on how having sex outside of marriage leads to higher rates of divorce.  In turn, higher rates of divorce lead to more single parents.  More single parents mean more poverty and worse outcomes for children.
