The division of care responsibilities between fathers and mothers is far from equal. Why is this so difficult, and what are the role models fathers can learn from?
As a father, you have long since ceased to be just the man who cuts the meat on Sundays. Nowadays we expect men not only to bring the bread to the table, but also to take their (re)caring role in the family seriously. Whether that always works out is another matter. Sociologist Stéfanie André, aka “the woman who knows more about fatherhood than your father,” tells you all about fatherhood. So listen up, dads!
The language of discussion is Dutch.
