Let's Discuss... Absent Fathers!
Details
Depending on your geographic location and cultural context, you may have observed a rise in households without fathers. This transformation in family dynamics has prompted shifts in the roles that mothers undertake in the upbringing and education of children.
What roles do fathers typically fulfill in raising children, and can those roles be substituted?
What are the effects on children growing up without a father?
Can social/government support adequately replace the role of an absent father?
