Mothers protect, fathers encourage
Children are no longer just «women's business». Today, more than 84 percent of fathers cuddle with their children. They play «ringmaster» or «tea party» with them,
comfort, help and take care of them.
Fathers do many things differently. That's why they depend on partners who can let go. But the main thing is that it works. This not only relieves the burden on mothers,
but also creates real closeness to the children.
According to researchers, mothers often take on a protective role. Fathers, on the other hand, encourage their children to
open to the world and become more independent.
