As a Father, it can be a pretty tough balancing act between work and family, and a new study finds that being a dad in Louisiana is of the worst states in the country to try and pull that off!

Louisiana came in at no. 47 out of 51 (including District Of Columbia) on the list of worst states for working dads.

Why is Louisiana so horrible for working dads? Wallethub.com says they factored in things like median income for families, cost of living and unemployment rates in addition to mortality rates. These factors, along with others were collected and broken down into four categories like "Work-Life Balance" and "Child Care".

When it came to the "Lowest Life Expectancy At Birth" category, Louisiana landed almost dead last (pun intended) coming in no. 49!
