The Father Factor: The Official Blog of National Fatherhood Initiative

Great video and so true. As a single mom I tried to keep my daughter's father involved in her life. We lacked good co-parenting skills. He left town and we have never heard from him again since she was 14. She is now 24, married to a wonderful man and has a 1 year old son. I consider myself blessed that she did not take a different path. 
Because of my experience I went on to develop a website to help co-parents communicate and get organized,www.myturnyourturn.com My passion is to help single parents realize that their children need both of them.

Tracy, thank you for reading and commenting. We are grateful to have readers like you who understand the importance of an involved father -- and even more -- are doing something helpful to create and educate more involved fathers. Thank you!

what do you do when you've exhausted all of your options and yet the mother continues to alienate your child from you.then the psychologist that you are both seeing see's nothing wrong with the way the mother thinks its fine to not have the father involved.

Hi Stan! First of all let me ask these questions to you. Are you separated to your wife? Do you live with your wife and your child? Are you married? Does your child knows you? I think you better start to think if what kind of husband/boyfriend and father are you. Then you will see why your wife keeps on alienating you from your child. Hope to hear from you soon. :)

jeff this is my email stan371@yahoo.com will tell you story

Great video on the fatherless country. There are far too few involved fathers out there. This story needs more press time and dialogue on the mainstream news. So many boys are getting this wishy washy, politically correct up bringing that their roles in society are getting blurred, leading to confusion about what a man is and how they are suppose to act.
