Question

Do you think fathers can only feel so close to their children because mothers are the one who give birth?

Answer 1

no, that is a c**p pseudofact usually only appropriate for custody hearings.It often begs a question especially if this nugget of wisdom is offered by the child's mother. If men are that limited in their ability to be bonded, then what does that say of you if you were willing to mate and reproduce with such a creature?

Answer 2

I don't think so, not at at all. I feel just as close to my dad as i do to my mum, after all, i share half of his genes too! Birth isn't really that significant - just as adopted children are loved just as much (if not more!) than people who brought up by their biological parents.

Answer 3

No way.  I'm such a daddy's girl.  A father's love is just as strong as a mother's.

Answer 4

Absolutely not....

My little girl's lived with me since she was 7 months old.  She's almost 7 now.  A typical mother/daughter bond couldn't even compare to us.

Answer 5

I am very close to my children. I didn't have to push to birth them, but I was right there, and saw them being born. They are very close to me.

Answer 6

no, no dinah. both parents feel the same, and it dosnt matter who gave birth. think about it 4 a sec, some kids are addopted, and they love both there parents the some. they nurture them when there kids, the love, they caare for them. in a parents eyes, its '''NOTHING LIKE A KIDS EYES!'' u'd have 2 be in there shoes to c, all kids are loved the the same, and no parents would even think about levels of love   = )

Answer 7

Not at all.  The relationship between any two people is built on what is put into it.  Closeness is not predetermined. It is nurtured and thrives or it is neglected and dies.
