A gene may influence paternal caregiving across species, revealing evolutionary and cultural patterns
Original framing: “The making of doting dads may involve a specific gene” — Phys.org
Structural correction
The original framing omits the role of cultural norms, economic pressures, and indigenous or non-Western perspectives on fatherhood. It also doesn't address how social systems influence caregiving behaviors beyond genetic predispositions.
