Daddy Love is More Important for Child Development

Most people think that a mother's love and care enough to care for and raise children. But it was the love of a father is also important for child development.

Researchers conducted a study of more than 10,000 men and women who reveal how a father who lives far away from keluraga or being cold to his son can damage a child's life.

Review of 36 studies have been conducted around the world concluded that a father's love for his children is as important as the love of a mother.

Researcher Professor Ronald Rohner stated that father love is the key to child development and hopes his findings will motivate more fathers to be involved in caring for their children.

"During this time the father thought that his position in the care of children is as financially support his family, but this is not necessary for the healthy development of children," said Professor Rohner as reported by the dailymail.

You have to start away from the faulty thinking and realize the influence of fathers on child development is very large, sometimes even larger than the mother. This conclusion came after Professor Rohner examined data from the study when the children and adults were given the question how great his love for his parents.

Based on the answers to the research participants, researchers can draw the conclusion that people who are less close to his father since childhood have a feeling more anxious, insecure, temperamental and aggressive.

Many behavioral problems due to the influence of his father the child ketidakdekatan that carry over into adulthood. The research was later published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Review.

A father's love is as important as the love of a mother, even in some cases perhaps more importantly love's father. One reason may be the child more and more reluctant to honor a father figure.

So if the father did not try to close with his son and instead being cold, it will be more painful for mental health and child psychology. Attitude of rejection by the father in childhood have a strong and consistent effects on personality development.

"Children who feel unloved are likely to become anxious, insecure, triggering anger and hatred and can cause the child to shut down emotionally in order to protect themselves from further hurt," said Professor Rohner.

It can make a child's difficulty in socializing and forming relationships with others. Children can suffer from low self-esteem and difficulties to deal with stressful situations. Unlike the physically ill, people who have had psychological problems can relive the emotional pain caused even after many years.
