Personal Stories

These are the personal experiences of children in homes without fathers, adults who once lived as a child in a home without a father, and mothers who are raising or who have raised children in a single parent household.

If you have any of the aforesaid experiences, please contribute your story, in writing or on video, to help us achieve our goal of a better life for children of absentee fathers. You may choose to have your written article published under your name or anonymously. Email us at articles@thefatherhoodassignment.org.

If you would like to share a story about someone who has helped to support and inspire a child with an absent father, please alert us at articles@thefatherhoodassignment.org so that we can make contact and learn more about the story.

The Fatherhood Assignment proudly recognizes March 29th as National Fatherhood Day™. This is the day of each coming year that we ask you to think of a youth in your life, in your child’s life or in your community who lacks a stable male figure in his or her life. Please reach out to such youth through his or her mother on this day and offer to spend some time to better a life in need.
