dads and good parenting does religion/ ethnicity affect it in any way?

I know dads are just as capable as mums in bringing up their children,
but does ethnicity and religin matter when it comes to being a better
dad. I for te record do not think that dads get a fair deal when it
comes to gaining custody or access to their children. My husband is a
good dad to all of our children even thoughtwo of them are not
biologically his. He has children of his own that he had before he met
me and as never been allowed to see them and i thinkthese children
would have benefited greatly from having contact with him. My two
children whose dads are not living with them have different situations
one sees her dad regularly but the others ones dad has shown no
interest since day one. It has affected her all of her life.

Yes, they are just as capable, when willing and in the position.

No, of course not. I think that possibly family *traditions* which affect
the outlook and upbringing of an individual do have the potential for
affecting ones willingness/mindset to parent (eg: gender role ideals). When
religion fosters these traditions, I'm sure that, theoretically, or
statistically, there are some correlations. But from an individual
anecdotal standpoint, there's no fundamental reason your husband should be
considered a better or worse father, based strictly upon his religion or
especially his ethnicity.

This *has* generally been the case, but the law is beginning to lift some of
the prejudices against dads. The system has been tailored toward the mother
as the primary caregiver.. ..with dads getting deeply scrutinized for every
little fart in the wind. The courts (in Canada, where I am) have definitely
changed in recent years.. .and appear to uphold gender equality in parent
custody cases.

I am a single father of ds19mo.

Why don't you marry the mother?

So she was good enough to screw but not good enough to live with.

Do your kid a favor and put him up for adoption.

Don't be so hard on the guy. Maybe next time he'll be a little more
selective when he bangs a broad.

LOL!! Do yourself (and all of us) a favour and put yourself through
elementary school.

Psychoses can set in annanounced. I'd think you'd have a good handle on
mental health issues.

Obviously, your parents made some pretty half-assed choices while raising
you. Good luck overcoming the plethora of social ineptitudes you suffer.

Girls are more emotional dependent on dad than boys (more emotional
independent on both parents by nature) Divorce situation with
indifferent dad devastes her well into adulthood. Many adult women in
their adulthood seeks advice from their fathers. For some unkown
factors, **few** mothers show more interest in sons welfare than
daughters.
