Father's Role in Enhancing Children's Development

Father engagement in the children development activities is the new concept in the developing countries. But father has a great role for child’s development. In our culture, most of the children live in a nuclear or a combined family. Father is one of the major members in this family. If parents know the importance of fathers’ involvement in child development, it may enhance fathers involvement in child rearing practice. The father as well as the mother jointly makes up the complete world of the child, put together with affection, safety and thoughtfulness. A long-term plan is required for child rearing practice. ALOKITO SHISHU a nongovernmental organization in Bangladesh is playing a big role for the parents by increasing awareness, parents’ involvement program, designing and planning for learning equipment, training etc. We want a world where all children will play together and will get same opportunity for their optimal development. Every father will make the world a change for the children’s optimal development. Let’s share a smiling face and a quite time with all fathers for their children.
