Why Dads Matter

Fatherhood involvement is like an insurance policy. Staying active in your child's life provides them added protective barriers from risk. Studies have shown that kids with fathers involved in their life actually do better in school and have less behavioral risks.

Academically, fatherless homes often lead to dropouts. The chance of graduation is greatly increased by dads. Also, fathers increase the likelihood that children will go on to higher education.

Sons and daughters are less likely to commit violent crimes when a father is involved. DOJ statistics are shocking. 80 percent of violent offenders come from fatherless homes. The most horrendous crimes often happen at the hands of people lacking a fatherhood figure growing up.

Kids are relying on you to partner with mom and provide them examples of strength and adversity. Stay in the game. Your kids are counting on you!
