Fatherhood ought to be emphasized as much as motherhood. The idea that women are solely responsible for deciding whether or not to have babies leads on to the idea that they are also responsible for bringing the children up. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

According to some people, the

role

of a

father

in bringing up a

child

is as important as that of a

mother

and

hence

fatherhood must be lauded as much as motherhood. I fully agree with

this

view. Of course, the

mother

has a greater

role

than the

father

in bringing the

child

into

this

world, but once the baby is born both parents play an equal

role

in raising him. A

father

’s affection for the

child

is as pure and invaluable as that of a

mother

.

In addition

, both parents have the same biological relation

with

Suggestion

to

the

child

. Of course, the

mother

has a slightly more important

role

in the

first

few months after the baby is born, but afterwards, their roles and responsibilities are more or less the same.

Men’s

Suggestion

Man’s

idea of parenting has

also

changed dramatically over the years. Earlier many men only provided financially for the

child

and shied away from other responsibilities of fatherhood. But the new age

father

belongs to an altogether different species. He believes in sharing every aspect of parenting with his wife. Needless to say, the modern

father

plays with the

child

, cuddles him, changes his diapers and calms him down when he is crying. He ensures that the

child

is fed and clothed properly and helps with his studies and homework. The modern

mother

also

expects

this

of her husband. It is practically impossible for a woman to look after her

child

all the time and still pursue a demanding career. Needless to say, young mothers these days want their husbands to have the same

role

as them in raising the

child

. What’s more, whether or not the

father

plays an active

role

in the upbringing of the

child

, his son or daughter will always feel more secure and protected under his wings.

For example

, if a

child

is harassed by a bully, the

father

is the

first

person he approaches

for

Suggestion

to

support. If the

father

wasn’t important, the

child

would not turn to him in the

first

place. What’s more, in many families, the

role

of the

father

is not limited to providing emotional support. He is

also

the bread winner. He is the one who provides for the

child

and his

mother

. In conclusion, the inalienable blood relation and the emotional bond that the

father

shares with the

child

make fatherhood as important as motherhood.

Also

, I believe the idyllic joy of parenthood is as unique and special for a

father

as it is for a

mother

.
