The suppressed problem in the Czech Republic: fathers who care after divorce for their children
Simbartlová, Kateřina ; Jeřábek, Hynek (advisor) ; Švihálková, Kateřina (referee)
In the preconception of a large part of society, there is the notion that "dads do not want to pay for their children" or may not take care of them after the divorce. Even fewer people care about the dads who would like to care for their children, but they are prevented in various ways, whether by a former partner or by the authorities. In my work I will deal with the social problem of fathers who try to care for their children after the divorce. The importance of a father's role in raising a child is not well-appreciated, and in some cases it may happen that the mother is preferred. The reason is socially prejudiced that care belongs to mothers, which is also built the concept of parental role. The consequence of this prejudice is that in our country there is still no common alternate care, as it is in other European countries. Some fathers agree that his father's role after divorce is not considered as important and just as maternity. But there are also those who ask for their right to equal education of children after their divorce to be respected. The fact that not every father has enough contact with a child, but requires care, I will demonstrate in 3 case studies. Thanks to their writings, expert opinions, interviews, and interviews with experts, I can outline real cases of cervical care in...
Male parental behaviour in rodents
Kopcová, Kateřina ; Frynta, Daniel (advisor) ; Pavelková, Věra (referee)
Paternal care is uncommon in mammals where males are more often involved in sexual competition for females than in providing care for their own offspring. Howewer some species present greater form of patertal care than metabolic investment in sex cells, and most of the time, this phenomenon is associated with a monogamous mating system. The direct costs of paternal behaviour are relatively well documented in primates, despite little research has explored these effects in monogamous rodents and even less in some polygynous rodents. The relative rarity of monogamy and associated paternal care has been interpreted in light of the relationship between parental investment and sexual selection. The major drawback of such bias is that most current hypothesis on rodent paternal behaviour are based mostly on data optained from a few species from temperate regions, mainly cricetids and murids, performed in controlled environment and in special conditions.

Comparison of situation of mothers and fathers looking after children in frame of "equal parenting" in CZ

1 UNIVERZITA KARLOVA V PRAZE FAKULTA HUMANITNÍCH STUDIÍ Katedra genderových studií IVANA TAŠEVSKÁ Porovnání situace matek a otců pečujících o děti formou střídavé péče v České republice Diplomová práce Vedoucí práce: Ing. Petr Pavlík, Ph.D. PRAHA 2011 2 ABSTRACT Split-up of family is not a gender-neutral phenomenon. In most cases, children are confided to the care of mother after the split-up. The family law recognizes also other forms of care, but both joint-custody parenting is rarely used in the Czech Republic. However, there is a tendency to change the state affairs in recent years. Supporters and opponents of joint custody voice their arguments in the public sphere, but relatively little attention has been paid so far to those who are supposed practice joint custody parenting, the parents. That is why, the focus of my research has been a comparison of experience of mothers and fathers practicing joint custody of their children in the Czech Republic. Concretely, I wanted to study whether, similarly with foreign studies, the mothers and the fathers experience joint custody differently. For example, whether the fathers have received a bigger support from their family and friends than have the mothers and whether the fathers experience less financial stress than the mothers. My research is explorative...
Parental behaviour and its relationship to social and reproductive system in voles \kur{(Microtus, Arvicolinae)}
ELIÁŠOVÁ, Michaela
I examined parental behaviour of three vole species, the brandt{\crq}s vole (Microtus brandti), the common vole (M. arvalis) and the levant vole (M. guentheri) in laboratory conditions. Monogamous and highly social Brandt{\crq}s voles displayed high levels of parental and paternal care. However, mostly promiscuous and solitary common voles also exhibited an intensive parental care. In contrast, polygynous and social levant voles displayed very low levels of parental care. Males of both latter species engaged in parental activities but spent less time in contact with pups then females. These findings suggest that intensive parental care may be connected rather with the high growth rate a slower postnatal development of the species than with social or reproductive system.
