Celebrate Father's Day
There’s a saying that everyday is a children’s day, consequently two
days of the year have been named as Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. The concept
of honouring parents was initially the honouring of the mother who was
traditionally the carer of children. Only subsequently was it decided that
fathers also play a part in their children’s welfare.
Father’s day is celebrated on the second Sunday in September. The day is
thought to be fitting for the family to get together. Often, it is also the time
when a daughter or a son might bring their partner to introduce to their
parents. The celebration can become quite gargantuan when families begin to
join up with their predecessors and their families. Inevitably sons and
daughters, especially of the teenage verity, begin to rebel against having to
spend a day with old and unknown uncles and aunts, and even great, great uncles
and aunts.
In order to avoid this friction it is usual for the immediate family to
celebrate the occasion by a breakfast in bed for dad. If breakfast in bed does
not appeal - and this is true for many parents - the next best thing is to
allow him to sleep the morning through, with a late breakfast for all when the
parent eventually gets up.
The older Father, with his brothers and sisters, may then celebrate the
Day with his own parents and great parents by taking them out to lunch or have
a family barbecue or morning or afternoon tea. In the meantime, their own
teenage or grown-up children can do their own thing.
Gifts become harder the older parents get. Those living in small
spaces may find it hard to accommodate large gifts, and appreciate those that
are wholly practical or symbolic of the family unity. For the father there
might be his very own, extra comfortable chair, or even paid golf lessons at
his local club. For the older parent there might be tickets for a short trip to
a place he has always wanted to go and has not been able to afford.
The cake usually provided for Father’s day is anything the parents
enjoy, but is often decorated like a birthday cake with an appropriate message.
If one of the children is currently engaged the invited guest might consider
bringing a special cake for the parents as a recognition that he or she is in
the process of becoming a member of the family.
