Note to dads: Good parenting makes a difference

Posted by On Lawn
ScienceDaily (2011-06-14) -- But a new study by researchers at the University of Arizona shows just how important dad's job as a role model actually is.
The study, "Impact of Fathers on Risky Sexual Behavior in Daughters: A Genetically and Environmentally Controlled Sibling Study," is due to be published in the journal Development and Psychopathology.
When it comes to girls and their decisions about sex, it turns out a father's influence really does matter," says Bruce J. Ellis, the study's lead author and the John and Doris Norton Endowed Chair in Fathers, Parenting, and Families at the UA Norton School of Family and Consumer Sciences.
