Abstract:
This article outlines what is known about fathers and fatherhood in South Africa, future research directions, and policy and program suggestions to promote the involvement of fathers in their children's lives. We argue that the role of Black fathers in children's lives is and has always been important, but also acknowledge that children, women, and men could benefit from greater paternal involvement in children's lives.
