"In an age where feminism seems to rule, there’s a lot of pressure for fathers to start acting softer and more feminine in dealing with their children. Not a trace of that “toxic masculinity” should come through! Perhaps this is surprising to those living in a “woke,” politically correct, feminist society, but it shouldn’t be to those who look at fathers through history. Take Teddy Roosevelt, for example. In a letter to a friend in late 1900, Roosevelt explained how he had been a sickly child—likely the type who would have been teased and labeled a sissy by other boys his age. His father helped him through this difficult childhood, not only through gentleness, but also through his manly character. Roosevelt explains: I was fortunate enough in having a father whom I have always been able to regard as an ideal man. It sounds a little like cant to say what I am going to say, but he really did combine the strength and courage and will and energy of the strongest man with the tenderness, cleanness and purity of a woman. … He not only took great and untiring care of me—some of my earliest remembrances are of nights when he would walk up and down with me for an hour at a time in his arms when I was a wretched mite suffering acutely with asthma—but he also most wisely refused to coddle me, and made me feel that I must force myself to hold my own with other boys and prepare to do the rough work of the world. [Emphasis added.] Roosevelt’s father was manly—daring and courageous—and passed these traits on to his son, enabling him to stand firm under pressure. It was through these manly traits that Roosevelt’s father fostered respect and love for himself in the heart of his son: I cannot say that he ever put it into words, but he certainly gave me the feeling that I was always to be both decent and manly, and that if I were manly nobody would laugh at my being decent. In all my childhood he never laid hand on me but once, but I always knew perfectly well that in case it became necessary he would not have the slightest hesitancy in doing so again, and alike from my love and respect, and in a certain sense, my fear of him, I would have hated and dreaded beyond measure to have him know that I had been guilty of a lie, or of cruelty, or of bullying, or of uncleanness or of cowardice.

The effects of destroying fathers are already visible in most countries around the world, as child and youth poverty and crime are increasing. What the governments are doing about it, nothing. "Researchers have long known that when children grow up in communities without fathers, they tend to face worse outcomes, including in particular much greater incidences of poverty. A 2018 study by researchers from Harvard, Stanford and the US Census showed that children who grow up in communities where fathers are present have higher incomes, lower incarceration rates, and better job opportunities than similarly-situated children in communities with fewer fathers. Family structure matters less than the general level of fatherly engagement. Even if a father is not living with his children, his presence and engagement has a measurably positive effect on child poverty." The author of this article sees three solutions to this problem "The solution is straightforward: develop programs and policies that support and include fathers. In my foundation's work, we have identified three key barriers to greater engagement by fathers. First, we need to overcome ingrained and unexamined anti-father biases by training social-service workers about father engagement. Second, we need to reform our child support system. A recent nine-month investigative study in the Baltimore Sun demonstrates how a well-meaning system intended to help children and families can actually do the opposite. Through our partnership with the Aspen Institute's Ascend group and Vicki Turetsky, a former federal child support commissioner, we have determined that reforming child support must start with setting "right-size payment orders" that assess each dad's actual income or employment status more frequently. This, coupled with co-parenting, fatherhood, and employment support, will make it possible for non-custodial fathers to continue to have meaningful engagement in their families and communities. Finally, fathers are not getting the mental health support they need. Many of the fathers enrolled in our programs are struggling with the physical and emotional impact of trauma, which are barriers to effective parenting. We must provide greater support to them." We have additional solutions on how to start supporting fathers and start allocating more funds than mothers, because this social group in the moment is discriminated against in accessing the same help as mothers. This should be done in order to fix the critical bugs on which the entire system is currently based.

Fathers, you must read the full article. "At that time, however, Lamb and a small number of other researchers were all coming to the same conclusion: Babies can form as strong an attachment to their dads as to their moms. From that seed has grown an intriguing but limited body of evidence stating that not only are men built to care for children, but that being an involved dad impacts kids’ physiologies, psychologies and outcomes for the rest of their lives. In short, dads make a difference. So why is it that when we see a man with an infant on a weekday, we still reflexively wonder where that baby’s mother is, even if we think it’s so darn cute that he’s “babysitting”? The truth is, just as women have always had what it takes to be CEOs, men have always had the power to nurture. Now that we’re recognizing this, the day may soon come when the default assumption that mom is the primary parent will seem laughably quaint—and we’ll all be better for it. And no, it’s not just that an involved dad makes a kid better at sports—research shows our presence is a boon to pretty much every aspect of a human being’s development. Having an involved dad has been associated with fewer cognitive delays, better school readiness, a decrease in tantrums and aggressive behaviour, and lower rates of depression. In the book Do Fathers Matter?, science journalist Paul Raeburn summarizes findings from a 2007 Swedish study concluding that an involved father may even keep his teenage offspring out of jail: “Children whose fathers played with them, read to them, took them on outings and helped care for them had fewer behavioural problems in the early school years, and less likelihood of delinquency or criminal behaviour as adolescents.” "As it turns out, Lamb—that pioneer of proving fathers make a difference—has come around to the opinion that gender isn’t relevant when it comes to outcomes. While he says he believes all that research has been useful to confirm “the appropriateness of fathers becoming more involved,” he hasn’t seen conclusive evidence that men provide anything women can’t—and he thinks that the less-involved parent just ends up having a different impact, no matter their gender. “Kids benefit from having both parents actively involved because then they have more parent time and more parent stimulation. And because any two people differ in personality and bring different strengths to the table.” More in link www.todaysparent.com/family/parenting/the-science-of-how-fatherhood-transforms-you/#men #women #equal #father #discriminationmen #discrimination #segregation #falseaccusations #domesticviolence #childsupport #equalparenting #parentalalienation #divorce #fraud #falseaccusationsrape #fatherless #childsharecustody #fahtermatter #law #brokenlaw #familylaw #court #depression, #depressionafterdivorce #Divorce #effectsofdivorce #health #masculinity #mentalhealth #suicidal #suicide #equalpay #equalwork #menrights #humanrights

But in recent years — as support for traditional family structures has diminished and progressive ideology has attempted to downplay the valuable differences between men and women — a healthy respect for fatherhood has been denigrated. A recent study by researchers at Penn State University, however, has rediscovered the distinctive role that fathers play in raising healthy, mature children. The study found specifically that closeness with fathers serves a distinctive role in helping children weather the turbulent years of adolescence by positively affecting the self-esteem, weight management, and prevalence of depressive symptoms in both girls and boys, the Penn State report said. Anna Hochgraf, a doctoral candidate in human development and family studies at the university, who led the research project, noted that while emotionally close relationships with both fathers and mothers had positive effects on children, fathers had a broader influence."

"Sure, we all know how important our parents are but it seems for females, fathers are much more important than we might realize. The bond a father shares with his daughter in most situations helps to shape who she is as a person and who she turns out to be. Research is becoming quite mounting regarding the importance of dads in general. Dads make some of the most important differences in the lives of their children. The more involved he is in the lives of his daughters (and even his sons) the higher their IQs turn out to be according to a report done by the Office on Child Abuse and Neglect. When a father supports his daughter properly and does not put any sexist ideas into her mind she will grow up with higher career ambitions and even more confidence. A study published in the journal Behavioral Neuroscience actually found that fathers already tend to be more attentive to their daughters than they do their sons which explains why their bond tends to be much stronger than the mother/daughter bond. Research has also shown that when a girl has a good relationship with her daddy she had a lower risk of developing anxiety, depression, and other mental illnesses. The more you work to embrace your daughter for who she is, the more comfortable she will be to really come to you with her feelings."

"Children who have a good relationship with their father are happier, feel less anxious, and are more engaged in physical activity, according to research by the Economic and Social Research Institute. 78% of nine-year-olds reported getting on very well with their father and 84% said they would talk to them if they had a problem." Unfortunately, there are vindictive and selfish women who, together with institutions that favor them based on discrimination, will do anything to deprive these children of happiness.

The parent-child relationship does not make any difference in terms of the gender of the parents "Engaging the 'parental caregiving network' in the brain Through experimentation, researchers at the Oregon State University's School of Psychological Science found that "fathers’ brains are malleable and can adapt to different parental roles." While watching previously recorded footage of loving interactions with their infants, both primary caregiving mothers and fathers were hooked up to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology to determine which parts of the brain became activated. After viewing their scans, experts found that the same parts of the brain were activated for both mothers and fathers, and includes the areas responsible for emotions (the amygdala and ventral tegmental area) and analysis (the ventromedial prefrontal cortex and superior temporal sulcus)".

""The Importance of Fathers for Child Development How fathers contribute to children’s well-being. Fathers play an important role in a child's development and can affect a child's social competence, performance in school and emotion regulation. Fathers can also affect a child's wellbeing indirectly. A supportive relationship between parents is linked to better self-regulation in a child. Fathers are important to children’s well-being. Sensitive, supportive, involved fathers contribute to children’s physical, cognitive, emotional, and social adjustment. Fathers also influence children’s well-being in conjunction with mothers and other caregivers, making it important to understand father-child relationships as part of entire family systems". We must add to the quote below that it is true that in Sweden and Norway providing paternal as well as maternal leave. It is true that in Sweden the largest number of child share custody 50/50 in the world is over 30%, but it is not true that fathers are treated in the same way as mothers, because the vast majority of fathers have to go through the same hell as in other countries in the world . "Countries such as Norway and Sweden attempt to engage fathers and mothers equally in caregiving by providing paternal as well as maternal leave". If there is anyone from Sweden and Norway please confirm this in the comments.

The problem is that despite this knowledge, the policy towards fathers is still set to keep them away from their children, treated as social third class, and after divorces and separations deprive them of any human rights, claiming that it is done for the sake of children. Meanwhile, as science proves, it is being done against the best of children. "All dads should have this, I think, if they want it. It shouldn’t be such an immense privilege to get to bond with your child. In her book The Life of Dad: The Making of a Modern Father, Dr Anna Machin says that bonding between father and infant is a two-stage process. The first stage happens at birth, is underpinned by oxytocin, and “relies upon the biological connection between father and child provided by genetic relatedness”. The second stage comes much later, because “it is based upon conjoined lives and interactions and is promoted by the much more powerful bonding chemical beta-endorphin, leading to a more profound and much deeper love”. Take the time at the beginning, however, and it feels to me as though the second stage can be reached much more rapidly".

Everyone who becomes a father or has become a father feels that he has changed. Recent research confirms that expectant fathers or new fathers adapt their brains to new needs just as much as mothers do. "But what about fathers? They do not experience pregnancy directly, but may take care of the new baby, too. Dads’ brains change, too As with practicing any new skill, the experience of caring for an infant might leave a mark on the brains of new parents. This is what neuroscientists call experience-induced brain plasticity – like the brain changes that occur when you learn a new language or master a new musical instrument. A sparse but growing body of research is observing this type of plasticity in fathers who experience the cognitive, physical and emotional demands of caring for a newborn without going through pregnancy. In terms of brain function, for instance, gay male fathers who are primary caregivers show stronger connections between parenting brain regions when viewing their infants, compared with secondary male caregivers. To learn more about plasticity in new dads’ brains, our research groups at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles and the Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Gregorio Marañón in Madrid, associated with the BeMother project, collaborated on a new study. We recruited 40 men – 20 in Spain and 20 in California – and put each into an MRI scanner twice: first during their partner’s pregnancy, and again after their baby was 6 months old. We also included a control group of 17 childless men. We found several significant changes in the brains of fathers from prenatal to postpartum that did not emerge within the childless men we followed across the same time period. In both the Spanish and Californian samples, fathers’ brain changes appeared in regions of the cortex that contribute to visual processing, attention and empathy toward the baby".

A new book is out that is based on a wealth of scientific research to support equal parenting rights without the sexist stereotypes that currently prevail hurting fathers and their children. "Myths and Lies About Dads: How They Hurt Us All is a groundbreaking book that destroys more than 100 of the most damaging beliefs about fathers. Using the most recent research, this pioneering work exposes these baseless beliefs and the toll they take on children’s relationships with their fathers, parents’ relationships with one another, and the physical and mental health of fathers and mothers. Tackling a wide range of topics from custody laws, to children’s toys, to the sexist behavior of counselors, pediatricians, and lawyers, Dr Linda Nielsen describes in vivid detail how these myths are linked to many of our most pressing issues". Opinion by an independent expert supporting equal parenting. ""Grounded in a wide range of research and draws implications that interest a general audience on current topics. The book’s material has direct implications for public policy regarding family law, divorce, and child custody. Nielsen frames these issues in a clever and catchy manner that make the book an ideal choice for academic courses, with appeal to a much wider general audience." Richard Warshak, clinical and research psychologist and author". More in link www.taylorfrancis.com/books/mono/10.4324/9781003324003/myths-lies-dads-linda-nielsen"Nielsen’s research debunks many popular, but false and damaging, beliefs about fathers and fathering after parents separate. As her research shows… Children who live primarily with their mothers have worse emotional, physical, academic, and behavioral outcomes than children who live with their fathers 35%-50% time in a shared parenting custody arrangement. Shared parenting children have better outcomes even when their parents do not have a cooperative, friendly relationship and even when one parent initially opposed the shared parenting custody plan. Infants, toddlers and preschoolers have better outcomes when they live in a shared parenting family. Infants and toddlers who spend frequent overnight time with their dads are not more irritable, more poorly behaved, or more insecurely attached to their mothers than those with little to no overnight fathering time". nielsen.sites.wfu.edu/divorce-shared-parenting/research/#men #women #equal #father #discriminationmen #discrimination #segregation #falseaccusations #domesticviolence #childsupport #equalparenting #parentalalienation #divorce #fraud #falseaccusationsrape #fatherless #childsharecustody #fahtermatter #law #brokenlaw #familylaw #court #depression, #depressionafterdivorce #Divorce #effectsofdivorce #health #masculinity #mentalhealth #suicidal #suicide #equalpay #equalwork #menrights #humanrights

Particularly in family courts, they can be used to teach others, but don't try it. "Humor researcher Marc Hye-Knudsen published a study in British Psychological Society‘s journal this week arguing that "dad jokes" actually have a positive effect on development. "When considered properly, dad jokes are an intricately multi-layered and fascinating phenomenon that reveals a lot not just about how humour and joke-telling work but also about fathers’ psychology and their relationships with their children," Hye-Knudsen wrote. Dad jokes are typically inoffensive, corny puns. They are wholesome and age-appropriate, making it suitable for fathers to tell their children.".

This article lists the advantages of single fathers compared to single mothers based on research and statistics. The author makes it clear that not granting custody to fathers hurts children and fathers, and this policy of discriminating against fathers has huge social consequences. "It’s extraordinarily well-documented how much of a disadvantage children from single-mother households have over children whose parents remain together, but less well-documented is how much of a disadvantage they have over single-father households. For example, studies have found that children that from single-mother households are 5 times more likely to commit suicide than children from both unbroken households and single-father households, 9 times more likely to drop out of high school, 10 times more likely to abuse chemical substances, 14 times more likely to commit rape, 20 times more likely to end up in prison and 32 times more likely to run away from home. The list does not stop there, single-mother households also account for 70% of all teen pregnancies, 70% of all child murders, and they account for the majority of filicide cases, which means yes, a child living in a single-mother household is the most likely to be murdered by their parent".
