LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. 14 (UPI) -- Contrary to conventional wisdom, most men say having children is important to their feeling complete as a man, U.S. researchers found.
Study co-author Julia McQuillan, professor of sociology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and colleagues surveyed nearly 1,000 U.S. men who are in relationships with women, and found fathers and non-fathers alike see fatherhood as part of a "package deal" with work and leisure.
