President Obama Promotes Fatherhood, Responsibility
On Father's Day Weekend, the President Highlights the "Irreplaceable Influence" Fathers Have
By KAREN TRAVERSJune 19, 2009

President Barack Obama dedicated his entire afternoon today to promoting the importance of fatherhood and urging men to fulfill their responsibilities to their children, a
topic that has great personal significance to him and one he has addressed forcefully in the past.

Obama talks about the role of a good father.
"Fatherhood also brings great responsibilities," he said in a proclamation today. "Fathers have an obligation to help rear the children they bring into the world. Children deserve this care, and families need each father's active participation."
Obama often speaks candidly about his own childhood growing up without his father, who left him and his mother when Obama was 2-years-old, and has issued strong words for men who do not live up to their responsibilities.
A Father's Day speech last year sparked considerable debate because of his sharp criticism aimed at the African-American community

Obama: 'I Know I Have Been an Imperfect Father'
"In many ways, I came to understand the importance of fatherhood through its absence -- both in my life and in the lives of others. I came to understand that the hole a man leaves when he abandons his responsibility to his children is one that no government can fill," he writes. "We can do everything possible to provide good jobs and good schools and safe streets for our kids, but it will never be enough to fully make up the difference."
In a provocative speech last year in Chicago, Obama delivered some tough love to the African-American community on how absent fathers have contributed to the breakdown of the black family.
"Too many fathers are MIA," he said. "Too many fathers are AWOL. Missing from too many lives and too many homes. They've abandoned their responsibilities. They're acting like boys instead of men. You and I know this is true everywhere, but nowhere is it more true than in the African-American community."

Obama: Dads Are 'Irreplaceable Influence'
He called on men to step up and realize that their responsibility "doesn't just end at conception."
"That doesn't just make you a father. What makes you a man is not the ability to have a child. Any fool can have a child. That doesn't make you a father. It's the courage to raise the child that makes you a father," he said.
In a proclamation declaring June 21, 2009, Father's Day, Obama today described fathers as "an irreplaceable influence upon their children" and outlined the responsibilities and obligations that comes with that title.
"Fathers must help teach right from wrong and instill in their kids the values that sustain them for a lifetime," he said. "As they encounter new and challenging experiences, children need guidance and counsel. Fathers need to talk with their kids to help them through difficult times. Parents must also help their children make the right choices by serving as strong role models. Honest and hard-working fathers are an irreplaceable influence upon their children."
He called on community organizations to do more to help men become better fathers. "These groups can support men as they take on the great challenges of child-rearing," he said. "Through honest and open dialogue, more men can choose to become model parents and know the wonders of fatherhood."
