Sun and the Moon both are required to complete the "SKY"
without the other, there is no meaning of life.
in similar way a family needs both, a father and also a mother, for a child as well as for themselves. Moms need their husbands to support them as well as dads need their wives to support them. And a child needs both of them because, he/she learns from both of them.
so according to me BOTH.
my opinion and opinions may differ :)

I think both Mother's and Father's play an important role in the family. Some Mother's go to work and some Father's go out to work yet both provide the love, support, food, family life and the stability of a loving family whether the Parent's are together or not.

If possible, both are needed to play complimentary roles. But this all depends on circumstances. Children pick up bad vibes a lot more easily than a lot of parents could imagine, and staying together for the kids is never a good thing.
From a nature POV? It would be the mother; the male was never made to hang around, but to hunt and find other women. Lets hope we've moved on a little since then though!

I feel that it should be equally split as much as it can be between the mother and father. But there are situations where there is only one parent in the child's life and in those situations I feel that the one that is in the child's life is the one that plays the most important role

It should be both, but we are a matriarchal society, and this condition must have grounding in some reason that points to the importance of the mother. However, one could also make the point that it is a male-dominated world. Personally, my mother was more important to me, but maybe if my dad was better i would have turned out even better. Women are the glue of society and i stand strongly with that statement.
Think about Jesus, his mother was probably much more important than his Earth father Joseph.

Both mother and father.
From a point of view, every role is equally important. Without children, there can be no father nor mother.

The most important role is that of the child. How the mother and father react is how the child will learn. If mom & dad are loving, the child will be loving. If mom & dad are mean spirited, the child will be mean spirited. To the child, there is no distinction between mother & father, they are both "love" and the child will seek out whichever he can communicate with first.

In an ideal family (if such a thing exists) probably the mother has a slight edge, but the father is also important. As a single dad, of two daughters, I have to say I was the most important. But I still encouraged my ex to be as involved as possible, especially when our daughters had their first periods - I was happy to discuss this with them but felt they needed another women to be there at that time.

The mother takes care of you and the father he gets you all the money for education.i think the motherplays the MOST important role in the family.

I believe that a Mother and Fathers roles can be different but equally important in the functioning of a home.
Each person has strengths and undeveloped strengths, it makes sense to take a lead where you are strong and to help and encourage the other to develop the strengths that are not as strong.

Sometimes both Parents play an important roll, in parenting, but, in my opinion, the Mother, has the know how, as to the rearing of her kids, taking away the task from the Father, when by pure instinct you know that the Father, do not have the patience to endure the task, of showing his kids right from wrong. My Husband was and is a good provider for the Family, I did not have to get a job, to make ends meet since he was a good provider for our kids. My role was being a good Mother to my kids, teaching them that to get ahead in the World, was to get a good education, and manners, when it concerned Adults, and above all else our kids had a lot of Love, with my Husband and me. I am a very proud Mom, when I see my kids with a family of their own, and telling me that they are rearing them as we did to them.
