I agree with this in theory, but there some obvious exceptions, imo. We've got several single moms in our mom who are currently raising teenage and pre-teen boys. Their dads are so far out of the picture its just not reasonable to "require" a dad to attend. I would hope that most bishops would take this into consideration.
