New York resident Jonah Engler Silberman has demonstrated a strong talent for leading businesses in multiple industries. A dedicated family man, Jonah Engler Silberman of New York is continuously involved in his children’s lives and regards parenting as his most important job.

In the past, parenting was viewed as a woman’s role, but now we know that involvement of the father deeply affects children. Fathers often interact with their children in different ways than mothers and may be more likely to wrestle and roughhouse with their kids.

Active involvement by fathers also helps children perform better in school. When a father is highly involved in his child’s school life, that child is significantly more likely to get high grades. Children with involved fathers are also less likely to abuse alcohol and drugs and are less likely to spend time in jail.

Fathers also help their kids build confidence. In many cases, the father is the parent who encourages children to push their limits and try new things, which offsets the mother's typical need to protect.
