With the rise of the negative perception of dear old dad can one still say “Happy Father’s Day”? Many of the “educated elite” complain about the harm the patriarchal society has done for society but for us on the ground we realize the importance of fatherhood, especially for those who have lost this truly special loved one. Many a father has not been educated in this role but have performed as if they graduated Cum Laude. They have stood by their family through thick and thin not only bringing home the Bacon/Bagels but the love, fun and wisdom one can’t get from any a textbook. So Happy Father’s Day to all those who’ve earned this title you earned this special day even if society isn’t bringing out as many Hallmark cards as it did before.
