Every year the third Sunday of June is celebrated as Father’s Day. This year 21st June is regarded as the celebration of fatherhood. Father’s Day emphasizes to honor fathers, their parenthood and the significant role fathers play in the society. Just like mothers, dads also play a crucial role in a child’s development.
History
This day was first proposed back in 1909 to complement Mother’s Day celebrations. However, the foundation of this idea can be dated back to the Middle Ages in the Southern European tradition. It is believed that Father’s Day was founded by Sonora Smart Dodd, who was the daughter of American Civil War veteran William Jack Smart. She was raised alone by her father and she realized the need to celebrate Father’s Day. So, her father drew up a petition for the first Father’s Day, to which she specified that it should be celebrated on her father’s birthday in early June. She continued with determination to elevate Father’s Day to extent of making it national holiday. Today, we celebrate it every year on the third Sunday of June to cherish paternal bonds.
