All dads want for Father's Day is less criticism about their parenting

A new study has revealed that half of fathers canvassed have faced criticism and second-guessing about their parenting choices.One gift many dads want for Father's Day is not being judged for their parenting style.

For over a quarter of fathers polled, criticism made them feel less confident as a parent and 20% said it discouraged them from being more involved in parenting."While some fathers say criticism prompts them to seek more information about good parenting practices, too much disparagement may cause dads to feel demoralised about their parental role," said researchers.

According to the report, dads' discipline methods emerged as the top category for parenting put-downs.
