Greetings, Dads.
Just to put something into perspective: Almost half (46%) of young people hardly ever talk to their fathers about important things, and 28% of children completely lose contact with their fathers three years after their parents separate. We have done research that proves paternal relationships have major impact on a child's well-being and self-esteem.
The ChildrenÒ⬙s Society is working to help fathers and children develop closer relationships. Our aim is to reduce problems as children grow older. Your views can help us.
The Fatherhood Commission aims to gather evidence from a range of children, professional and the general public, to present a child centred case for the importance of fatherhood.
It will take just 5 minutes to give your views: www.childrenssociety.org.uk/fatherhood .
