Every dad matters

Dads are really important to their children and can be a massive force for good in their children’s lives, whether they are biological dads, step-dads or other father figures. It is equally true that negative parenting by dads can cause a lot of damage.

Find out more about how dads affect kids on the Dad Info website, an information service for fathers.
