Brad Wilcox – On Fatherhood, Happiness, and the Class Divide Over Family Formation

Brad Wilcox is a nonresident senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and Professor of Sociology at the University of Virginia, where he directs the National Marriage Project, as well as a senior fellow at the Institute for Family Studies and the author of numerous studies, articles, and books on family formation and its many consequences.

Wilcox and Stepman discuss the consequences of fatherlessness, whether the pandemic may have shifted women's priorities, and the sociological data on happiness. They also talk through whether the class divide opening up around family formation is more cultural or economic, and how to discuss sociological findings around family without being subjected to the tyranny of exceptions.
