Hello its Eddie again this post is to tell you how me and the group I got on with research the changing roles in fatherhood. We obtained secondary research from the interent, websites like apa.org which gave good insight to the role the father has had through time. We also found out about the factors which have effected the role of the father like more women going to work, new laws for seperated parents and father being able to take time of work when their baby is born. We also made a questionnaire for the public asking about the experiences they have had with their father such as how much time they spend with them and what he does to help in the house. The older people we asked said their father didnt do that much to help with chores ect, and their mother was left with most of the responsibilities. However the younger people ages 18-25 said their father done more in the house, spend more time with them and went to events like parents meetings at school. All this research was combined to write a report and create a power point presentation presenting our findings on the topic. We concluded that the role of the father has changed from 40 years ago, were he was expected to be the breadwinner of the family and had no time to spend time with their children. Now more fathers are taking part in the development of their children, with the wife now working and being giving time of work its now also easier for a father to do so.
