| Publication name: | Cool Dads - what do children need? |
| Description: | Booklet based on a two year study of fathering carried out by the Centre for Theology and Public Issues at the University of Edinburgh. The study involved group discussions with 67 children and young people between 4 and 17 years of age. Perceptions of fathers emerged during games and discussions and the illustrations are examples of drawings participants made of their fathers while they talked about them. The booklet is aimed at fathers encouraging and enabling them to involve themselves more, and more positively, with their children. |
