Continuing the debate from "Family
Feud," July-August 1997 and "Family Values: The Sequel," May-June 1997.

BARBARA DAFOE WHITEHEAD

In
a review essay that purports to include my book, The Divorce
Culture, Arlene Skolnick ignores what the book actually says.
Instead, she falsely ascribes to me things I have never written.
Let me begin with some of her many errors and misrepresentations.
Then I will draw on my own argument, since it reveals the weaknesses
in her view of how liberals should think about family structure
changes.
