National Executive Director, Fathers & Families - Thousands Protest Lifetime TV's New Father-Bashing Reality Show 'Deadbeat Dads' - Thousands of protesters have called and written Lifetime Television this week to protest Lifetime's new father-bashing reality show Deadbeat Dads. Last year, similar protests drove the show-originally called Bad Dads--off of Fox. According to Reuters, in Deadbeat Dads Jim Durham, director of the National Child Support Center, "functions as a sort of 'Dog the Bounty Hunter' for tracking deadbeats." Durham targets dads by "making their lives miserable -- foreclosing on their house, repossessing their car. He will squeeze them... It's ambush reality TV." The program's depiction of divorced dads is a horrendous distortion. Research clearly shows that most divorced dads pay their child support and strive to remain a part of their children's lives, often under very difficult circumstances. The Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement's own data shows that two-thirds of "deadbeat dads" earn poverty level wages-only 4% earn even $40,000 a year. In the middle of the worst economic conditions in decades, Deadbeat Dads kicks fathers while they're down. Media reports show that the majority of those losing their jobs in this recession are men, and it is notoriously difficult for fathers to get their child support orders modified downward. As many newspapers are now documenting, these hard luck dads sometimes end up in jail. - www.FathersandFamilies.org and www.GlennSacks.com
