Boys who grow up in fatherless homes have a greater risk of major challenges in life than those who grow up with a father at home. We might want to believe otherwise and there are many boys who overcome the hardships associated with an absent father, but the truth is in the data.
The negative effects of a boy without a father can be seen in countless studies and reports. The statistics show the importance of a father figure in the majority of children's lives.
The importance of a father in a boy's life cannot be understated, but every family situation is different. It is not always possible for a biological or step-father to be present. That is where children can benefit from community resources that can fulfill this gap.
