“Father” is not only a simple word, but it also carries huge emotions. Father is a figure who is responsible, vigilant, careful, fearless and a shoulder where we all can depend blindly. Father’s day is a day to glorify and highlight ‘fatherhood’ and ‘parental bond’. It is a very special day for all who plays a father figure in the whole world.

We actually don’t appreciate the role of father as much like we do Mothers. They both play a very vital role in the overall growth and mental development of a child. A child learns many practical things from father, then nobody can teach him. In India, it’s a kind of new concept to celebrate Father’s day. But Indians observe this day with honour, respect and love to fathers. For increasing the importance of father’s day, many schools in India arrange such programmes to inspire children to respect father and take care of them.

Father’s day has not a fixed date in the whole worldwide. But the big part of the world population chooses third Sunday, June to celebrate this day.

But in Australia, this father’s day is celebrated on the first Sunday of September. And in Norway, the day is celebrated on the second Sunday of September.

History of Father’s Day

The woman’s name is Sonora Louise Smart Dodd, who brought up the theme of Father’s Day. She thought about giving his father a special honour by celebrating father’s day in 1909. His father, William Smart was a widower. His wife, Sonora’s mother died while giving birth to her sixth child. After Sonora’s mother’s death, William raised the newborn baby with the other five in Washington state.

Sonora realised her father’s being strong, responsible, unselfish as well as raising all of them as a single parent. Then, Sonora wanted to celebrate Father’s day on the first Sunday of June. Because she noticed that the date would be close to his father’s birthday. Then she went to local churches, shops and government offices to get support with her idea. Eventually, she became successful. First Father’s day was celebrated in Washington on June 13, 1910.

Later, President Lyndon Johnson declared the third Sunday of June to celebrate father’s day. It was not a national holiday for 58 years. President Richard Nixon made this day a national holiday.
