He changed the goal posts, because Peterson’s original post made reference to “children who grow up in fatherless families”. There is undoubtedly a subset of unmarried but cohabiting male partners who qualify as ‘fathers’ within a family unit.

Yeah @jordanbpeterson this is point that was trying to be addressed. For example I have a dad. So I know how to act fatherly Example: Giving the Highschooler a new board cause he broke his at the skatepark (free). Tonight we spoke about the dangers of a strong ego.

that's what the study is, unmarried women... it doesn't say anything about fatherless children. Many unmarried women still have a partner/father. I would be curious though if there is a study breaking this down to unmarried and single mom.

So a child who lives with two parents who didn't get a piece of paper signed is "fatherless". Righto, genius.
