Adolescence is a key time of rewiring in the brain, and it is a critical period for social development. During this time, the focus of attachment shifts from parents to peers, making the ability to navigate the social world crucial. Mental health issues in adolescence often manifest within the social sphere, such as social anxiety and body image issues. Dads play a significant role in scaffolding their children and building resilience. Interestingly, fathers don't have to do anything extraordinary or expensive. What matters most is that fathers value their children's company and take the time to be present with them, engaging in activities they enjoy. Simple acts like washing the car, walking the dog, or making Sunday lunch can have a positive impact on adolescents.
