The father character and its actual configuration reveals that men are, more and more, conquering the role of the children´s keepers in the family. However, there are very few studies about divorced fathers responsible for bringing up their children alone. Looking for filling this gap and maximizing the comprehension on the links between fathers and their sons/daughters, the object of this study consisted on analyzing how fathers perceive and follow their sons and daughters´ professional choice process and how this father , himself, sees his participation in this process.The research used the method of qualitative exploratory study. The participants were chosen intentionally. There were four divorced fathers that opted for not getting married again, with children who were choosing their professions and five adolescents, both genres, in secondary schools or starting a graduation course. All of them live with their fathers. The tool used in this research were two semi-structured interviews carried out in a semi-directed way. One of the interviews was directed to the father and the other to his son(s)/daughter(s). The questions were transcribed and analyzed based on the theme analysis technique. The collection of information was done in a Private Secondary School located in Recife. The results revealed fathers with great expectations regarding their son/ daughters´ professional future. Among them, the desire that their son and daughters repeat their professions; the respect to their choices, the desire that their sons and daughters are successful; the guidance regarding the doubts they may have about the choice and professions; the readiness in advising about the reality regarding the professions, jobs market, salaries and professional career. In addition, the researched fathers demonstrated that they may influence, they are disposed to share, advise, support e be close to their sons in relation to their professional choices and future life projects. In the same way, the sons and daughters had the perception that their fathers are worried, take care and influence them on their decisions. To conclude, we can say that the relationship between divorced fathers and their sons and daughters is full of affection, comprehension, dialogue and love. Generally speaking, the fathers are worried but mainly they take care of their children as a whole, including their future career plan
