Conservatives have a misunderstanding of liberal views of "non-traditional" families and upbringings, which I think has been lost in the culture wars. As a result, articles like these do a good job of tearing down strawmen. The liberal argument was never "There is no benefit to having more than one parent." or "It's no big deal if you're raised by a drug addict" Instead, it's that responsible parents have the right to shape their own household, and that as a society we shouldn't judge them for that particular decision, and instead offer support.
