Abstract
The issue of adolescent fathers’ involvement in care and education of their children constitutes the subject of the growing interest of policymakers and societies. The main aim of this study is to present arbitrarily selected results of empirical research, which will allow ascertaining adolescent fathers’ involvement in children’s care and education. Based on the cited research results, it can be stated that most adolescent fathers are interested in their children’s affairs as well as declare their commitment to care for them even when they do not live with them.
