Both Parents Should Assume Equal Responsibility in Raising a Child Parents consist of the male who sired the child and the female who gave birth to the child. In all human societies, the biological mother and father are both responsible for raising their young. However, some parents may not be biologically related to their children. An adoptive parent is one who nurtures and raises the offspring of the biological parents but is not actually biologically related to the child. Children without adoptive parents can be raised by their grandparents or other family members. Although mother have more responsibility to raising a child, I personally think that both parents should assume equal responsibility in raising a child. In this era, in most family, fathers are working hard to fulfill his family needs. Many children spend more time in home with mother as compared to the time that they spend with their father. Almost every time child spend without father, just with their mother. Meanwhile at night time, father maybe too tired to spend time a little with children. This condition make children lost a father figure and make a damage to their mental, attitude, and behavior. So, a balance between father and mother are need for their children, without that children will lost their way. Another reason why both parents should assume equal responsibility in raising a child is because children need love. Love, not just child need love, everyone need love too, but children have a special case. Persons just need one love in their life but children need 2 love in their life, one from their mother and another one from their father. As long as that condition is accomplished children will stay in right way, but if that condition is unaccomplished children will stuck in wrong way. So, both mother and father love can make children have good mental, attitude, and behavior. Opponents
