Why Working Dads Should Spend More Time With Their Kids

If your husband uses his job as an excuse for not spending time with the kids, you're going to want to share this with him...

A study published in the Academy of Management Perspectives found that working fathers who spend more time with their children are more likely to be happier at their job and have less desire to work somewhere else.

It might be because when someone feels well-rounded, it takes the pressure off other aspects of their life – like their career. And dads who spend more time with their kids also experience less conflicts at home.

And here's a little advice if you're a business owner: Your male employees will be more engaged in the workplace and will stick with your company longer if you offer paternity leave and increase the availability of flextime and the number of personal days all employees can take to spend time with family.
