Changes in care giving roles

With the burden of financial support reduced, and with a changing concept of a father’s role, modern day fathers tend to be more involved in children’s care giving. They are now spending more time and energy on their children. Psychological research across families from all ethnic backgrounds

suggests that the influence of a father’s love and attention is as great as that of a mother’s. Fatherly love helps children develop a sense of their place in the world, which helps their social and emotional development. Moreover, children who receive more love from their fathers are less likely to have behavioural problems.

This trend is still increasing and its effects will become clearer and clearer in the future, especially in traditionally male-dominated societies.

Question 28. Which of these is NOT the traditional role of a father?

A. financial supporter B. teacher of moral values C. religious educator D. caregiver

Question 29. Social welfare programmes ___________.

A. support families financially B. help mothers with domestic abuse

C. educate fathers about their responsibilities D. train caregivers

Question 30. The influence of a mother’s love is ___________ that of the father’s.

A. more important than B. less important than

C. much greater than D. as important as

Question 31. Children who get more fatherly love will _______ behavioural problems.

A. never have any B. have more C. have fewer D. have a lot of

Question 32.The changing roles of the father will be seen more clearly in ___________.

A. ethnic groups B. developed countries

C. economically independent societies D. traditionally male-dominated societies
