    In 2008, researchers from the Universities of Exeter and Edinburghwere checking out the genetic link between the way a particular creature fathers versus the way it mothers. Their subject? The burying beetle — which has very specific parenting roles based on their biological sex. They found that the male burying beetle is involved in much more indi...

    While discovering a genetic link to explain the differences in mothering and fathering is yet to happen, the differences absolutely do exist. At least that’s the conclusion of thousands of observational studies. Here’s how a few break down:

    Mothers: Have a tendency to point out the social cost of being an asshole when they discipline kids. That’s very good for them to know, considering you want them to have friends and not turn into s...
    Fathers: Are inclined to point out concrete results of bad behavior, including things like jail time or fines. Kids need to know that stuff too. Unless you want to establish a bail account now.

    While this might imply that kids being raised by single gender families are somehow at a loss, that appears to be not the case. A 2010 study from the Journal Of Marriage And Family, found that lesbian couples don’t really split into different roles. Instead, the kids just get a double helping of momness, which does little to affect a child’s outcom...

    The idea of the researchers in the beetle study is that the genetic differentiation in parenting roles has reinforced the survival of the creatures. Therefore, there is a passing down of the genetic material associated with strong parenting roles. But there’s one thing that beetles lack, and that’s culture (plus half of their band members — RIP Joh...

  4.

  5. Aug 23, 2020 · Recent information suggests that mothers and fathers play a distinct but complementary role in child-rearing in the family, with mothers being more present and more responsive to the child’s needs (that is, playing a more nurturing role) and fathers being more protective (Pakaluk and Price 2020).

  6. Mar 22, 2018 · In the present study, we investigated whether fathers’ and mothers’ parenting behavior is differentially related to parental factors (such as age and employment), child factors (age and gender) as well as social support.
