The males may not intentionally harm the piglets but may get a little aggressive and bite or step on the piglets. It is not recommended to keep a litter with the father and the mother as there are usually too many in a litter, space may become limited and they would be at greater risk of getting stepped or laid on. It is best to keep the mother in a medium sized pen, one that is big enough for the mother to lay down and not squish the babies, away from other larger pigs.
