They are all roles a father plays in the lives of his children as they mature into young women and men. A father never stops sharing the wisdom he has learned and is often the first person we seek out when making major life decisions. 

For this and many other reasons, the importance of a father cannot be overstated. It’s been well-documented that children suffer major disadvantages in life when there’s no father in the home. Whether it’s an increased likelihood of poverty, substance abuse, crime or dropping out of school, it’s not an understatement to say that having a dad, or a positive male role model, in the home can save a child’s life.
