Happy Father's day to all of the SC Dads out there. But now a question: Do you feel Father's day carries the weight that Mother's day carries? Do you feel it is De-valued? And what do you think added to the decline of value in the day?

hi HH~~~
I believe you are correct. There is not half as much media
preparation, or even sometimes personal preperation,
as there seems to be with Mother's Day.
I personally believe that as our culture has changed and
the picture of Dad is no longer the fun guy outdoors playing
with the kids, teaching them how to ride bikes, and fish and
hang around in the garage. The more frequent picture of
Dad, is an empty frame, in a house with a fatherless child(ren).
That is increasingly becoming the norm in society today,
especially in the big cities.
Personally, none of my kids called their Dads (2 different Dads)
to say happy father's day. And they are all of age to make
their own decisions. As my older son said "thank him for
what? For never being there? for never paying any child
support, for making a million promises he never kept? for
making you struggle alone Mom? For beating you up?
Hell, no I'm not calling him".
That pretty much says it all in a nutshell.

WOW! I respect your kids for their love and commitment to you! My dad wasn't always something to write home about either but I wanted for nothing and I guess he did the best he could do!
