Journal Eight

One of the negative factors in my essay that I focused on was the impact of not having fathers in the children's lives. In the book we see that many of the children's fathers are in prison or are not involved in their lives. It affects how they act in school and not having them as a role model affects them daily. A secondary source I found was the government website for welfare. The government website has a section on how the fathers and their impact on the children's lives. I found this very helpful because it shows the different affects even the affect on their learning if the father is not present in their lives. In addition too it shows the percentages of how it affects each of the children individually. It also explains the children look up to these fathers and they have a bigger chance to exceed in their education with a role model like their father involved in their lives. I found this website very helpful.
