Abstract
Denial of contact to unmarried fathers: the need for further training and support to social workers
THEME 1: Promoting stakeholder partnerships that protect, support and enhance resilience during adverse events and trauma
SUB 1.1The role of psychosocial services during adverse events and resultant trauma from a Human rights perspective
Oral Presentation
There has been a growing concern regarding children growing up without their fathers despite them being alive. Societal Norms and expectations often alienate men from parenting. Qualitative research was applied and in-depth interviews were conducted with unmarried father and mothers or maternal relatives. The data show that fathers re not always absent by choice but other social(gender roles),Cultural(payment of Inhlawulo) and economic(unemployement) factors contribute to single parenting . it is imperative for social workers and other related professionals to understand the law, especially Section 21 of the Children's Act(2005) and policies on guardianship and parenting plans. Men can be involved in co-parenting before birth, for instance at ante-natal classes, and society needs to change its attitude towards socially constructed gender differences by acknowledging men's role as nurtures, not only as providers.
