My older brother is progressively becoming more of a violent and angry person; he was exposed to the domestic abuse of my mother but only until age 2 when I was born (when my mom finally ended the relationship). My younger brothers were not exposed to violence, but their father was never involved and he has never actually met my youngest brother (as he walked out on my mom when she was pregnant). Both my younger brothers seem to struggle with school. The older of the two seems to have a hard time controlling his emotions (specifically anger) yet the youngest seems to do fine with his emotions. I want to know why the absence of a father can be so impactful, what is it that they really have to offer a child during development that a mother cant or doesn’t usually provide?
