I think Both are important. Both teach some lesson with their experience. Father protect a child from the social life and taught the child how to handle or live in the social life. Mother takes care and taught the basic things as well as what is good or bad. Both are equally important. Single father or mother can give lots of love to their child but not every thing which make them happy.

I feel both parents are crucial to the childs development. The father teaches different roles and life lessons then the mother and if one is missing that the child will miss out on valuable life lessons which will change the course of that childs life.

in my opinion,the special relationship the began between the mother and child from the outset have a role in the consolidation of feeling and aha cess even built a fortress of any storm, and of course replies alva iresulting from acts of particular also have a particular impact.

I'm a mother so I'm biased with mothers being more important in a child's development...although I admit that a healthy personality can develop with both parents loving and raising the child. But the absence of a father is less of a blow to a child than when the mother is absent. Her tender loving care, maternal instinct, her 'softness' and cuddly embrace and hugs, her sweet lullabys that rock babies to sleep...all these will be terribly missed by a child whose mother is absent. There was an experiment conducted along this line, aptly called contact comfort...and this could be found in mothers, whose gentle softness is what babies need instead of the muscular frames of fathers. Of course, nothing can replace a father's role in the family...his male image is a critical force in shaping musculinity and sexuality in the male child. But like I said, I'm biased for mothers, so this reply...
