Last July, I posted the following item:
"Studies have shown that children are happier, healthier, get better grades, are less likely to get in trouble with the police, have fewer cavities, &c., if they have a mother and a father.
"This piece of news has been widely reported.
"Very widely.
"Less often mentioned is the fact that children also do better if both of their parents are white.
"Apparently, nobody feels a pressing need to make that fact the basis for public policy."
I confess it, I was wrong. Those widely-cited studies don't, well, exist. I apologize for my error.
Everyone else who has cited that phantomnation of studies may also feel free to retract and apologize.
