In Essential Dads, sociologist Jennifer Randles shares the stories of more than 60 marginalized men as they sought to become more engaged parents through a government-supported âresponsibleâ fatherhood program. Dadsâ experiences serve as a unique window into long-standing controversies about the importance of fathering, its connection to inequality, and the stateâs role in shaping menâs parenting. With a compassionate and hopeful voice, Randles proposes a more equitable political agenda for fatherhood, one that carefully considers the social and economic factors shaping menâs abilities to be involved in their childrenâs lives and the ideologies that rationalize the necessity of that involvement.
