The earlier response is correct. We cannot help you with any specific. Certainly, you need to restate your thesis, and when I say "restate," I mean say what your main idea is in a different way. I have found that some students think that a restatement of the thesis should be in the exact same words, but that is what you do not want to do!
Of course, a conclusion, like any other paragraph, must be more than one sentence long. Therefore, you need to know what else should or can be included in a conclusion. You should have a review of the points you made in your essay. For example, if I had three body paragraphs in my essay, I would review the three points I made in those paragraphs. Sometimes a conclusion contains a lesson that the writer has learned in the process of writing. For example, in the case of your particular topic, you might now have greater insight into what makes a father good or bad.
Remember that the conclusion is meant to wrap things up for the reader and end the paper in a graceful way, not too abruptly. Just as an introduction is meant to allow the reader to become acquainted with your ideas, the conclusion is a way of saying goodbye to the reader.
I have included a link to a site that has good advice on writing introductions and conclusions. Good luck!
