Core Tip	Fathers play an important role in their children’s lives. However, few fathers in the setting of teenage pregnancy are prepared for the birth of their baby. They are less likely to attend childbirth preparation classes. Childbirth attendants do not engage them in intrapartum decision-making. Engaging fathers in the setting of teenage pregnancy in childbirth education and birth might reduce adverse feelings of shock, fear and detachment that might otherwise harm the early father-child attachment relationship.
