I feel like it would be about 5 minutes before someone decides that emphasizing the father's role in the family (ie, absent) and ignoring the mother's role is just another way for the patriarchy to erase women.

To me, it seems like the complete oppositeis the case.

A single father is more rare, exactly because of the concerns of the effect that the lack of a mother might have.

Single mothers is way more accepted than single fathers, but all in all I don't see this as an issue or at least not any more.
