The Changing Roles of Fatherhood

The role of a modern Dad is changing. He's no longer just the breadwinner. In some homes, he's the bread-maker, plus the chauffeur and babysitter.
Today, the success of a father is not based solely on how well a dad provides, but on how good his relationship is with his children. We'll explore the role of fatherhood, where it's been, where it is and where it is going.
