“Love is love” is the undying mantra designed to silence anyone who believes some family forms are more virtuous and valuable than others. It demands we exchange what we know to be true for the belief that any family form is right and good as long as it is freely and mutually chosen. No one has a right to a dim view of another’s choice and everything must be equally affirmed, it asserts.

While the coronavirus has disrupted family life dynamics in ways that aren’t always positive, a new Pew Research Center analysis shows that an increased share of fathers are satisfied with the amount of time they spend with their children compared to three years ago.
The data for the analysis released Monday was drawn from a survey of 10,332 randomly selected U.S. adults conducted Oct. 13 to Oct. 19, 2020. The study has a 1.6-percentage-point margin of error.
According to the data, 46% of fathers reported spending “the right amount” of time with their kids. This marks a 10-percentage-point increase from 2017.
Meanwhile, another 48% of fathers surveyed last October said they spend “too little” time with their kids. That figure is down significantly from 63% in 2017. In 2020, only 5% of dads said they spend “too much” time with their children, up from 1% in 2017.
