What Father’s Day?
It is true - many fathers in America could do a much better job when it comes to their relationships with their children and with their children’s mother. Still, we should never forget that there are millions others, who do an exceptional job when it comes to caring for their children and relating well with mothers. Sadly, in this society, we do a great job of dishonoring and disrespecting fathers, to characterize them negatively and to give the impression that their presence does not matter. We need to place more emphasis on father presence and its positive effects and help help fathers where they fall short. So, this father’s day; hold the tie, the cologne, the socks and the tools. If you were not respecting and honoring dad all year or showing him how much he really matters in your life, maybe it is time for you to reflect on what Father’s Day really means. And mothers - many of you need to be blamed for how children feel about their fathers. Much of the negatives come from you. Remember, the best gift a mother can give to her children, is to show them how much she loves their father and to encourage them to have a great relationship with him. It’s not always easy but it is worth it! Father’s are just as important as mothers! Happy Fathers Day!
