Roles of "The MAN"

I know its not easy for men to take care of their responsibilities of being a father and other roles in life such as a businessman, brother, husband, nephew, or pastor but being able to recognize and understanding the role of father hood is extremely important.

The "Man" without the Father

The man without the father can led to many different things, a boy growing up without the male father figure around can be good and bad. In many ways and in different cultures the man without the father can help him to be nurtering to his family if the man ever deciding to, and make him learn quicker due to not having a father figure around. An example that i found was spoken form Obama and how he didn't have a father.

Obama spoke saying:

“I would say the fact that I grew up without a father in the home. What
that meant was that I had to learn very early on to figure out what was
important and what wasn’t, and exercise my own judgment and in some ways to
raise myself.
My mother was wonderful and was a foundation of love for me,
but as a young man growing up, I didn’t have a lot of role models and I made a
lot of mistakes, but I learned to figure out that there are certain values that
were important to me that I had to be true to.
Nobody was going to force me
to be honest. Nobody was going to force me to work hard. Nobody was going to
force me to have drive and ambition. Nobody was going to force me to have
empathy for other people. But if I really thought those values were important, I
had to live them out.
That’s why it’s so important for me now, both as a
United States senator and as a president candidate, but also as a father and a
husband to wake up every morning and ask myself, am I living up to those values
that I say are important
