“…Despite fathers from more traditional backgrounds theorizing about the multiple ways in which they may be involved with the child, they still described themselves as “helpers” of mothers (ID #2, #3, #5, #10): “For me when the mother is busy and if the baby is throwing up, then I go and clean him up” (Rakotomanana et al, 2021, p. 5). Others described their involvement in specific dimensions of care, highlighting the type of activities in which they were absent: “I spend a lot of time with her, but feeding her, or change the diaper I barely do, is mainly her mother” (Bueno et al, 2017, p. 4). In this sense, the involvement with leisure and play activities was often described by these fathers, emphasizing how these moments were important to reinforce bonds with the child (ID #2, #3, #7, #9, #10, #11, #13, #14): “I play with them … When they smile and they're happy as can be, you can tell it on their face” (Summers et al, 2006, p. 157).…”
