Oh the things I'll do for The Stir. Readers, I just sat through a debate on parenting between Michael Lohan and "Octomom" Nadya Suleman. That's right, two of America's most baffling parents. They debated parenting. Because that's what kind of world we live in. Anyhoo, the question they debated was: Do children need both parents? Michael Lohan, whom I will refer to as MiLo, says "absolutely." Nadya, famous for being a single mom to 14 children, took the position, "challenging." Which probably means "no." But even if you don't trust either of these people as authoritative parents, it's still a good question. Do children really need both a mom and a dad?![]()
