Abstract

This paper illustrates some theoretical issues about the fatherhood and its transformations by examining definitions and descriptions of fathering within the educational filed. Starting from this background, the paper shows some questions underpinned of a research project about the role of the father in a family with a disabled son/daughter. Fathers influence the develop of their disabled child directly through their behavior and attitudes. Focusing on fathers’ role, we try to reflect about “which roles do fathers play in family life today and which dimensions could characterize father’s educational functions?” in order to support, from an educational perspectives, fathers in their pathway with a disabled child.
