Father Wantobeism | AFAR Podcast – Ep. 2

What is “father wantobeism”?

While some men don’t want to be involved fathers, that percentage is extremely small, regardless of income level, ethnicity, or religion.


Many men want to be good dads, but are frustrated by real challenges that demand recognition. For the vast majority of dads who are not present in their kids’ lives—particularly those from distressed communities—incarceration, extreme poverty, and negative self-esteem play a role in keeping them away.

Today, Leonard and Charles talk about that.

Stay up to date with FUL news and impact.
