Fathers play a role to develop the child to become independent in society, develop breadwinner habits in other terms be the provider.

To better say a father moulds and shapes the ‘manly’ behaviour of the child.

One major reason due to the absence of a male figure in modern day society

households in the Caribbean is because of previous times mainly slavery.

In the Caribbean region, the issue of absentee fathers has become a huge social issue

especially in modern times.

Absence of fathers and "father" figures are predominant in the case of persons of

African descent as it stems from the slavery period....

Additionally, boys may engage in crime and drugs and young girls in prostitution

or relationship with men (often older) to meet basic physical needs for themselves

and the family.

Monique,

I fell in love with a man, I now have a 28 month old baby boy, that he sees occasionally.

He's 27 years old, running the streets and still in and out of jail

for reasons that make no sense.

Are there any resources I can pass on to him, maybe to change his mind so he

can be a better father and partner?

Fatherless  ::redface::
