The father of the family, in his role as leader of the family, faces many challenges : spiritual, financial, and psychological as well as emotional challenges. As the priest of the home, he is expected to guide the family to God but it can be a challenge instilling spiritual discipline in the children. He is also expected to meet all the financial needs of every family member which can be challenging if he is not financially viable. The family depends on him for their psychological and emotional needs instead of looking up to God to meet those needs.
