UK Survey: 1 in 4 children do not consider their fathers as immediate family
Amazing but not surprising--a press release from the UK shared parenting group Families Need Fathers said "1 in 4 children do not consider their fathers as immediate family": "BBC Newsround’s 35th Anniversary Survey has found that 1 in 4 children do not consider their fathers as immediate family. Although this figure is alarming, Families Need Fathers are not surprised by these findings - the number of children who don't see their fathers as part of their immediate family is broadly the same as the number who live in lone-parent households. Children who are growing up not living with their fathers are hardly likely to think of them as close family. "John Baker, FNF Chair, said of the survey’s result:
"'This is an example of how society’s continued marginalization of fathers is affecting children’s perspectives on the roles of men and women as parents. This is a real wake up call for the country and our politicians.'"
