Your five-year-old, your fifteen-year-old, and your twenty-five-year-old need different dads. Most dads are most comfortable with the role that worked when their kids were small, but as kids grow, so must Dad. The steps on the parenting path stay the same, but your role in them changes. Fatherhood has six stages, from Dependent to Partnership, and each one asks something different of you. Find your child's stage and know your role.
