  • 224 - Why It’s Crucial for Dads to Fight for Parenting Time with Their Children
    Sep 30 2024

    Fatherhood has long been recognized as a crucial component in a child’s development, but society often still assumes that mothers are the primary caregivers. This assumption can leave many fathers marginalized in custody battles and parenting time arrangements. However, fathers bring unique and irreplaceable qualities to their children’s lives that must not be overlooked. Fighting for parenting time is not just about legal rights; it’s about being an active and present force in a child’s emotional and psychological development.
