Super DaD

Submitted by ub on

Besides being the male parent of a child, the paternal bonds of a father to his children are precious and unique. A DaD has a loving, legal and social relationship with the child that carry certain rights and obligations.

Fathers unable to change diapers or having trouble getting our babies to go to sleep, and other gender stereotypes are history, as far as I’m concerned.

There was a time over one hundred years ago, the first-ever Father’s Day reportedly took place in 1908 inside a house of worship, following the worst mining accident in #USA history. It was a holiday meant for thankfulness, and it was the daughter of a dedicated man of the cloth, who first proposed a day to honor fathers both alive and deceased.

Fathers are pillars in the development of a child's emotional well-being. Kids look to their fathers to provide a feeling of physical and emotional security. They want to make their fathers proud, and an involved father promotes inner growth and strength.

As a divorced dad, I sometimes feel that my kids have received two versions of reality, one from my ex, and the truth. But the facts are always available if they ever care to find out. Some dads are better than others and I've been less than perfect, but God knows I have tried and made sacrifices, but I will always love them and keep it up as long as I can.

Many businesses, retail stores, and restaurants are making available assorted Fathers Day special offers, discounts and freebies in appreciation to dear old dads all over the world.

Consumers are expected to spend over $16 billion on gifts for dad this year, more than ever before and up from last year’s $15.3 billion. WoW... This is a figure which is really SUPER. Here are a variety of fathers day stories.
