Their relationships are loveless, cold and almost always full of objections. The importance of fathers in promoting father-son relationships cannot be denied. The mother can't be the caregiver, disciplinarian and homemaker all rolled into one. Dads need to assume responsibilities in parenting, too. Fathers compliment the mothers by their distinctive touch of manly roles.
Fathers tend to fare better in some duties such as disciplining the sons.
Fathers are also better at accompanying the boys to outdoor activities which the boys love. Promoting father-son relationships involves strengthening the bonds between them. Spending time with sons goes a long way in bonding. A strong bond means that the son is more open to communication with the father. The boy is more likely to confide in his father about certain problems which he may feel embarrassed to talk to his mum about.
