QUESTION FOR THE MEN
Why do some men consciously leave all interaction with their children to their wife?
Did you know that children with emotionally absent fathers feel abandoned and distanced. Absent fathers create void, a vacuum, emptiness in their children. A strong relationship between a dad and his kids helps teach children discernment: how to make judgements about relationships, how to deal with challenge, how to be brave. When a man is involved in his children's lives, it gives them confident in relating to other people.
And if Dad is not around, a child, especially a young girl can grow up vainly searching for deeply satisfying relationships that promise to meet that need. (This is no myth, this is the truth!)
Extremes in behaviour are the result when young women do not enjoy a caring relationship with their fathers! Young girls jumping in and out of relationships at a frenzied pace, or you see girls transferring the fantasy if the father they never had to all men and seek a dream partner, only to be dissatisfied with every suitor who shows serious interest.
Multiple painful marriages are often the result!
That is why a lot of Dads who now know better, are seriously getting more deeply involved with their wives and children.
We urgently need more Dads to get involved in the lives of their wives and children.
