„The involvement of fathers is […] very important for children’s learning and development. Seeing fathers read in the home provides children with a positive rolemodel, which is of great importance (especially for boys) and having fathers involved in reading activities is an important factor for later reading and school success. Given that the often low percentage of children who are read to by their fathers is primarily due to time constraints rather than a lack of awareness, the solution requires a shift in employment and social organisation, such as policies targeting work-life balance.“
