"One Father is better than Hundred Teachers" is a very pertinent saying about how important fathers are in a kid's life. They form a role model for the children and shape their life in a particular manner. Other than being the PROTECTOR and the PROVIDER for the child a Father also provides a powerful context to empowerment that shapes the life of the child forever.
Most of the times children do not realize the importance of a father in life the way they realize the importance of their mother and this same feeling percolates into the society as well. Often fathers also do not realize this. Most often fathers are treated as FREE ATM MACHINES and their responsibility starts and ends at financial provision.
And this social meme also seeps into life for those unfortunate fathers who are denied access to their children. They are not allowed to even see their children, let alone being a part in their life and often judges put condition on fathers that they have to pay for child support / maintenance if they want to see their children and even after paying, it is the mother who decides whether the father should meet the children or not.
Needless to say, as a men's rights activist, often I get distress calls from fathers who have been denied access to their children. And the outcome of dealing with their problems is that it is a mindset problem for the judges to respect a father's place in a child's life. Like I said earlier, most often fathers do not realize the abuse; similarly the judges also fail in evaluating the importance of fathers in life and pass orders against them.
The example that I am now going to give might probably help those judges better understand a father's place in life. It is the real life example of how Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru brought up his daughter Indira Gandhi who not only became one of the most successful Prime Ministers of India but also came to be known as the "The Iron Man of India" and she gave the famous statement that, "In my opinion, men are no more liberated than women" - a statement most radical gender based extremists would despise of.
This is what a father can bring out of a child with his upbringing, he can be better than 100 teachers and if the judiciary does not stop its fanatic "Wife Pamperment" and become generous in granting shared parenting, the entire world will slowly shift to a FATHERLESS society wherein women will be actually standing on national highways to request truck drivers to be part-time fathers of their illegitimate children and juvenile crime will be the call of the day.
Choice however, lies with the society at large and the judiciary in particular - whether it wants to listen to what Jawaharlal Nehru said or what the feminists say and create an animal society. Irrespective of their choice, the fact remains, "One Father is better than hundred teachers".
