Dad's Essential Role in Making Kids Awesome
The Art of Manliness
Fatherhood's Flexible and Crucial Role
- Fathers have a more flexible parenting role than mothers due to not being tied to pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding.
- This flexibility allows them to react to environmental changes and ensure their children's survival.
- They 'scaffold' children's entry into the broader world by teaching essential social interaction skills, prosocial behaviors, and emotional regulation.
- Fathers focus on teaching risk assessment and survival skills needed in diverse social situations.
- Their teaching varies based on their environments, always aimed at helping their children thrive beyond the family unit.
