Content: Father's Role In Effective Parenting - Being The Parent
The quality of a father can be seen in the goals, dreams and aspirations he sets not only for himself, but for his family. A wonderful and healthy parenting is one which involves both mothers and fathers taking active participation in a child’s life. Scientifically, it has been proven that children whose father’s have active involvement in their growing up years have fewer behavioral problems and turn out better individuals socially and academically. A father’s role is not just limited to being a “breadwinner” for the family. His involvement influences the child’s overall development, including the intellectual development, gender-role development, and psychological development. He can be just as loving and nurturing as the mother. Most kids who share an intimate and warm relationship with their fathers tend to grow up to become more confident adults. As children grow up, fathers assume the role of a friend, guide and mentor. The presence of an actively involved father at home goes on to make a lot of difference in the lives of children. Here is a look at the roles fathers play at different stages of their child’s life.
