Involved Fatherhood Isn’t Just Great for the Kids—It’s More Fulfilling for Dads, Too
I’ve been spending a lot more time with my young children this week, and while they make it harder for me to get my work done, they bring incalculable joy to my life. Social science data suggests that I’m far from alone—marriage and fatherhood make men happier and more fulfilled.
Social scientists have long reported a strong correlation between involved fathers and various measures of children’s success in life—from better social and emotional development to escaping poverty. But fatherhood isn’t just good for the kids—it also helps the dads.
The 2022 General Social Survey found that men ages 18-55 report the highest levels of happiness when they’re married with children.
More than a third (35%) of men who are married with children said they were “very happy,” while almost half (49.3%) said they were “pretty happy,” and less than a sixth (15.7%) described themselves as “not at all happy.” By contrast, married men without kids are less likely to be “very happy” (29.8%) and more likely to be “not at all happy” (20.2%). The numbers get worse for single men, with and without kids.
“When it comes to men in their prime today, married fathers are the happiest,” Brad Wilcox, a professor of sociology at the University of Virginia and senior fellow at the Institute for Family Studies, told The Daily Signal in an interview Friday.
“Married dads typically live with their kids, so they have the benefit of staying with their kids, seeing their kids experience life,” Wilcox explained. “Married mothers whose husbands are more actively engaged with their children are happier in their marriages,” likely making the fathers happier, too.
“Happier marriages are powerfully linked to your overall satisfaction in life,” the professor added.
He also noted that married fatherhood changes a man in subtle ways.
While pregnancy and childbirth obviously affect women’s hormones, studies have also suggested that men, when they’re married to the mother of their children, also change.
Fathers “experience hormonal changes in pregnancy and they experience more hormonal changes the more they care for their infant or their toddler,” Wilcox explained. “It’s not just like married fatherhood domesticates men from a cultural vantage point—it’s also the case that being with your children physically seems to domesticate men, as well.”
This leads to a decrease in testosterone, with an associated decline in aggressiveness. The professor suggested the trade-off is very much worth it.
“Married fathers are the happiest guys out there, and that suggests that this transition into family for men, even if it’s associated with declines in testosterone, is not a bad thing,” he noted.
Married men with children also tend to work harder and make more money to support their families. Women’s pay has increased in recent years, but married men with children still make more money than single men.
Something is just right about a man getting married and raising kids.
There’s nothing like lifting my 3-year-old son in the air and watching him giggle, or helping my 6-year-old daughter learn to spell increasingly more complicated words. As I type these words, she’s drawing pictures of her favorite characters from “KPop Demon Hunters,” and proudly showing me her handiwork. Raising children reminds me of simple joys and helps me appreciate the life I have.
Of course, they’re a handful, and I don’t know what I’d do without my amazing wife to help comfort my boy when he has a tantrum, or to keep track of my daughter’s school schedule.
Not a day goes by that we don’t have some mess or accident, and there’s always something to worry about, but the joy the kids bring us makes every struggle worth it.
I don’t just believe that marriage and family help men thrive because I’ve read it in a paper or seen a convincing spreadsheet—I know it deep in my bones.
None of this is to downplay the issues that lead some to delay marriage and parenthood, and I know not everyone has the opportunities I’ve had. But I cannot stress enough how valuable it is to settle down and to raise children—and I think both American policy and culture should prioritize stable marriages and more children.
It won’t just help the kids—it will help the parents to thrive, as well.

Running Into the ‘Fire’: How One Man Brings Hope to Persecuted Christians in Nigeria
Alex Barbir arrived to smoke rising from burned homes in the Nigerian village of Zike. More than 50 Christians were killed in an attack on the community the night before.
“As soon as we were driving into the village … you can feel the tension of the atmosphere,” Barbir said.
Fulani militants are reported to have been behind the attack on the Zike community in North-Central Nigeria in April 2025. The scene, according to Barbir, was like nothing he had ever witnessed, with “a mass grave of 50 or 60 people just thrown in the dirt in a hole.”
These places of devastation, of persecution, are the exact locations Barbir runs toward.
As the founder of Building Zion, 28-year-old Barbir seeks out the places “in the fire” where others “really just don’t go.” He brings a message of hope through the Gospel of Jesus Christ, rebuilds homes and churches that have been destroyed, or even builds new schools for communities.
One week after first visiting Zike, Barbir returned with supplies to rebuild about 18 of the homes and structures that were destroyed in the attack.

Building a home from the ground up in Nigeria costs about $1,200 to $1,300, according to Barbir.
It is estimated that more than 50,000 Christians have been killed in Nigeria since 2009, and about 7,000 during the first half of 2025 alone.
Boko Haram and the Islamic State have historically carried out many of the attacks on Christians, but more recently, Fulani militias, an ethnic group in Northern Nigeria, have also begun attacking Christian communities in the African nation.
The scale of the persecution and genocide has drawn international attention, leading President Donald Trump to designate Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern last year.

Barbir, a Georgia native and graduate of Liberty University, had a desire to serve the Lord and others through mission work since his time in college. He figured it would be something he did later in life when finances and plans were more “put together.” But, feeling challenged to take a leap of faith, he founded the ministry in 2023.
“The primary mission is, one, to reach the unreached with the Gospel, but two, to be able to bring hope to the persecuted church, and we specifically use construction to do that,” he explained.
Since launching, Barbir has worked in about half a dozen nations, including Sudan, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. And despite not having a construction background, Building Zion constructed about 70 homes in 2025.
“I kind of just learned along the way,” the ministry founder said, adding that he works alongside local residents on each project.
Barbir has already returned to Nigeria this year, where multiple projects to build schools and churches are underway. He plans to travel to Burma and Sudan later this year while also overseeing building projects in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The work of Building Zion, a name meant to depict the organization’s Biblical foundation and practical approach to serving others, is supported through donations from individuals and churches.
For anyone who would consider supporting the work of Building Zion, Barbir asked that they pray for the work of the ministry, consider giving a financial gift to support the building projects, or even join the group in the field as they construct buildings and minister to persecuted Christians or those who have never heard the name of Jesus.
