The Honourable Prime Minister of Dominica and father of three, Hon. Roosevelt Skerrit, issued a call for fathers throughout the land to be present in their children’s lives and to make a meaningful contribution.
He said, “A father’s role in a child’s life is indispensable. If it means paying up because the court has mandated you to do so, then do it. Make sure that your Child Support Payment is in at the end of the month…Take up your responsibility from Day 1 so that your child is always given the best. But more importantly, I encourage us fathers to be there emotionally for our children. Let us show them love and affection”.
He went on to say that while “material support is good and necessary, it is not all”. He said that children must know that they are valued in order to develop into confident, well adjusted members of society.
The Prime Minister stressed that a mother should not have to take a man to court to take care of his child.
The Prime Minister who himself is a father of three, made these comments in light of Father’s Day which is celebrated in June

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
