The dream means something about your own feelings about your father. The child in the dream probably represents your self at a younger age. One possible interpretation could be that you feel as if your father still sees you as a child, and does not recognize that you are an adult.
A child getting hurt by his father is a general thing. Fathers beat up their kids to bring them on the right path. So it is nothing specific. Its a general dream.
she always dreamed that she would/could do anything a boy or male could do.
The question is not clear as to whether these are dreams about an actual child or simply a child in a dream. Generally speaking, the dreams are about something that is very important to you, whether a real child or something else to which you are committed. The absent father symbolizes someone who you feel should also be responsible and committed, but disappoints you by their lack of involvement.
This means your child's father will leave you before the child even comes along because he is afraid. Hah
Child of a Dream was created in 1998.

Unless you father is terminally ill or his life is at risk for some other reason, this dream is not forecasting the future. Dreams of a parent dying are not uncommon and reflect a young person's changing relationship with that parent. The former relationship of dependent child to protective parent is gone, and that absence can be illustrated in a dream as death. The dream means that you cannot go back to the old parent/child relationship, but must now begin a new way of relating to your father as increasingly equal adults and friends.
The Giver shared a dream with Jonas about a child being released by his father, which disturbed Jonas as he had been taught that release was a positive thing but the dream implied something darker. The dream foreshadowed Jonas's realization about the true meaning of release in the community.
The dead father in your dream probably represents your own father; your subconscious mind can produce a "father" image somewhat distanced from your own parent to make the message of the dream less disturbing. But the dream is not as fearful as it seems. Dreams use death to represent a major change or transition from one stage of life to another. Dreaming of your father's death could be your subconscious mind signaling a transition occurring in your life. You may be ready for more independence, moving from the position of the child toward more adult independence.
A dream which has become a reality for a child might be a goal that the child has reached. A dream that is now a reality might also be something he or she got for Christmas or a birthday.
The child in this dream is a symbol for something quite different in the dreamer's life. It could be anything from a pet surrendered at a shelter to a contract handed over to a co-worker. The dream expresses the dreamer's emotions at having given up something that was valued yet needed to be let go.
