verb, intransitive

Usage Problem.

To act or serve as a father.

[Middle English fader, from Old English fæder.]

Usage Note: The verb father has come to be used widely to mean specifically to "perform the child-rearing functions of a father," particularly in the gerund fathering, as in Fathering a step-child takes considerable tact and understanding. This usage reflects the same social changes that have led to the analogous use of the verb parent and has met with the same kinds of critical resistance. In the most recent survey the example cited was rejected by 64 percent of the Usage Panel. A problem particular to this use of father is that it may occasion opportunities for humorous misconstruction, since it is in direct competition with the older sense of "beget." It is notable that the analogous use of mother as a verb meaning specifically "to perform the child-rearing functions of a mother" is encountered only rarely. It is likely that the discrepancy in the frequency of these new uses of mother and father reflects the fact that recent writers on family life have tended to place more emphasis on a reconceptualization of the traditional paternal role in child-rearing.
