Role Reversal: Fathers’ in parenting and impact on children

Abstract

The parental anger is linked with behavioural problems and there is a need for prevention or early interventions for fathers that builds emotion socialization and improves father-child connection. The systemic review had been done with only existing recent literatures keeping in mind cross-cultural variations. The impact of PACT study (Parents and child together) and Dad’s turning into kids program has been reviewed The findings of BIPLAB (Behavioural and parenting Lab) conceptualizes parenting as style, but rather as a series of decisions and factors that shape those decisions. Overconfident bias-provide objective feedback on behaviour, social norming. The ‘deliberate scaffolding model’ helps to inculcate children’s prosocial behaviour. The ‘optimal decision’ is one that helps parents to reach their own goals. Decision making is shaped by many factors including information, various cognitive biases, mental attention and fatigue.
