to support mothers and
children
Failure of services to engage with male
family members puts children at risk

societies
9. Sustaining Work With Fathers
"This government understands that fathers today want to be
more actively involved in bringing up their children and more
are doing so. A father-child relationship has a profound and
wide ranging impact on children that lasts a lifetime.
Research has shown that children with involved fathers develop
better friendships, more empathy, and higher levels of self-
esteem. They are also less likely to become involved with crime
or substance abuse."
Sarah Teather MP
Minister of State for Children and Families
10. This is not the Future
Fathers’ involvement in their children’s education
matters for children's educational, emotional and
social development, for both girls and boys.
Mothers’ involvement is not a substitute
