When you hear of family breakups that lead to divorce, it will always be the father who will be blamed and perceived to be at fault. There have been instances where the mother is to blame but if you check out figures, you are bound to notice that fathers are tagged as the majority reason for family breakups.

Among the reasons we hear today would be:
1. A second party
2. Psychological Incapacity
3. Failure to Provide
4. Domestic Violence

The list can go on and if you look at it, perhaps fathers need more time to mature and some level of psychological help to get themselves out of this niche. There are exceptions where fathers just plainly need a longer time to mature. A lot of this happens especially among teen parenting where though they claim they are ready, mentally, they lack the proper seasoning to be acknowledged as full-pledged parents.

As a whole, fathers may not always consider parenting as their main role in the family. To them, it is always to provide. But you would be surprised at fathers who would make great parents if given the chance. Timing and proper growth into parenthood is just something lacking these days.
