Discipline and Fathers Everybody agrees that children need their freedom. Yet on the other hand everybody agrees there is a need for greater discipline. This is the contradiction every parent faces in bringing up their own children. According to Lamb in ‘The father’s role: Cross-cultural perspectives’ research emphasizes the important role of fathers in helping children to learn the standards of behavior for their group and to develop the capacity of self-regulation. When fathers are absent, curtail, or ignore their child-rearing responsibilities, there are implications throughout the family system. Mothers are likely to feel unsupported, abandoned, angry, and resentful. The resulting tension exacerbates the child’s challenging behaviors. Lack of parental involvement by the father leaves the mother as the sole unsupported teacher of social skills and deprives the child of another role model.
