INTRODUCTION
1.1. THE PERSPECTIVE:
“One who gives birth, one who initiates, one who imparts knowledge, one who provides food and protects from fear – these five are considered as fathers”
– Neeti Sastra[1]
Most people’s biggest investments in life are their occupations and their families. Both of these realms, earning and caring, are characterized by their specific requirements and agendas. Each realm has a specific set of obligations, requirements, tasks, commitments, and positions that might compete for limited time and energy. Work-family relationships are bidirectional. In other words, both family and job can effect in each other, resulting in work- family conflict. Conflicting job and family duties can negatively impact both a man’s family and career. Work-family divergent can lead to marital issues, diminished life satisfaction, increased stress, anxiety, depression and perceived lower quality of life. The birth or adoption of a child is an important adjustment for parents between their work and family life. When a child born, he or she needs extraordinary attention, care, nurturing and bonding from the parents. “Parents”[2], are the combination of both father and mother who raise their child or children.
