Possibilities of Supporting Active Fatherhood in the Czech Republic

Summary/Abstract: Active fatherhood is a modern phenomenon which penetrates very slowly into the Czech Republic. The degree of involvement of Czech fathers in childcare is low compared to other developed countries. The aim of the paper is to point out the real possibilities of supporting modern fatherhood in the Czech Republic. The presented proposals are based on attitudes of Czech men and their relationship to active involvement in childcare. The research results show that the level of involvement of men in day-to-day care for children and the household corresponds to the real conditions created by the state and the employers. The implementable measures are examined in terms of preferences of Czech fathers, and at the same time on the basis of positive experience from abroad. The proposed measures have in common two things, those are flexibility and financial support.
