Duries Air Freshener Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Prof Emla Fitzsimmons is at it too. Quote "We measure their wellbeing levels, of depressive symptoms, of how they're feeling, their levels of anxiety and so on. And we tend to see they're also doing worse - also on that dimension," said lead researcher Prof Emla Fitzsimons, from the Institute of Education. The difference appears to be the greatest among teenage girls: Of girls in a family with two parents in a stable relationship, 22% had high levels of depressive symptoms For girls living with a single parent, this rose to 27% But how sure can researchers be, given the many financial challenges a single parent household faces? Prof Fitzsimons said: "There is still a difference between the outcomes of children born to single-parent households, versus married or cohabiting, even when you taken into account they tend to be from poorer homes." The academics say these are average findings across large populations, not a judgement on any individual parents. Must be a bigot. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So children from two parent families, of whatever gender or sexuality, are 5% less likely to show symptoms of depression than one from a single parent family, before discounting the economic disadvantages of only having one potential earner.

I honestly thought you guys would go down the route of rubbishing the academics themselves, but cherry picking one stat in an attempt to demean the figures really is scraping the barrel. Anything but accept the results and conclusions from the academics, which are unequivocal.

The fact you chose to home in on it, rather than the unequivocal conclusions of the academics (which I've also quoted) and other stats in the reports/studies, show that you've lost this one. Even the sarcastic notion that I'd 'nailed the case for voting Scottish Family Party' was disingenuous.

Instead of admitting to being wrong, which would be the big and manly thing to do, he is continue to peddle this diversionary claim. I won't be responding to your childish insult, and can't imagine why anyone would think it'd give their position more credence anyway. It actually does the opposite.

welshbairn Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Got a third glossy A4 leaflet from Labour with no mention of the ward or even the Highlands or the name of the candidate. All I can find out about the candidate is from his facebook page which still reads ShaunForWesternIsles2021 when he's supposed to be standing in Inverness West and can't be bothered to send out anything to say what he's about. We got our postal votes out a fortnight ago, how he expects us to think he'd make an effective councillor when he can't even get it together to put out a flyer or even something on social media is beyond me. Maybe Labour are just nominating ghost candidates to make it look like they're standing in every ward. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would have fit right in with his old school disciplinary methods towards people and in particular women who disagreed with him. Although there was a strong suspicion that he was actually gay so that might be a problem. Having said that his fans tend to be simpletons so the base messages would resonate with them. ETA had to change the tense of a couple of things as he is after all, still very, very dead. Edited April 25, 2022 by cb_diamond 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
