Father's Day Father's Day Is Celebrated Annually on the Third Father’s Day Father’s Day is celebrated annually on the third Sunday of June in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe, India, Pakistan and many other countries. Australia and New Zealand tribute to fathers on the first Sunday of September. Father’s Day is a celebration honoring Dads and celebrating fatherhood, and the influence of fathers in society. Different countries celebrate this day on different dates, though more than 111 countries have adopted the U.S. date, which is the third Sunday of June. Father’s Day is analogous to Sibling’s Day, Mother’s Day, Family Day and Parent’s Day in celebrations. Father’s Day is not a United Nations Observance so this Day is not proffered by a specific theme by the UNs. Happy Father’s Day celebrations happen in the honor of good-hearted and strict paternal figures. You can wish this day to a person whom you consider your father or who is precious in your life as a father or dad, guardian, or a person like that. Many people don’t need a specific day to honor their fathers however one designated day helps us to remember this moral duty if we have a heart filled with love and compassion for our close relationships. Many people celebrate father’s day by recollecting their childhood memories with their fathers and giving them gifts like flowers, fitness gadgets, gardening tools, surprise outdoor parties and indoor dinner parties, and anything that can make their father happy. This is a wonderful day to make our fathers happy and make them feel that they brought up thankful offspring. Father is a glamorized figure in almost every religion and culture. It is because of the important role of a father in the nurturing (growth) of a child. Sonora Smart Dodd is credited with founding this beautiful day in the honor of those who sacrificed their present for our future (our parents, mom, and dad). Dodd was born in Arkansas, the United States of America. Her father William Jackson Smart was a Civil War veteran and he brought up his six children including Sonora Smart being a single parent. Dodd glamorized her authoritarian father as a “very strict man” and expressed that his strictness was the main reason behind her family’s unity. For the first time, Father’s Day was celebrated on June 19, 1910, in the state of Washington, thanks to the struggle of Sonora Smart Dodd. In 1972 President Richard Nixon declared a permanent national holiday on father’s day. By the mid-1980s, the Father’s Day Council declared “Father’s Day” as a Second Christmas for all the men’s gift-oriented industries. Father’s Day is not designated to revere solely one’s biological father rather modern Father’s Day suggests that we should celebrate this day with those whom we consider worthy to be our father even if they are not our fathers biologically or legally. Father’s Day is an important celebration in our lives in two ways. In one way, it gives us an opportunity to thank our fathers for their sacrifices. on the other side, it helps us to understand the challenges of fatherhood. It also teaches us to stay responsible while dealing with our children because they will have to lift the burden of the nation on their shoulders on the day. It is our moral obligation to train them well for such hard times. .

  • Allomaternal Investments and Child Outcomes in the United Kingdom
    Allomaternal Investments and Child Outcomes in the United Kingdom Emily Hazuki Emmott Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University College London 2014 p. 1 Declaration I, Emily Hazuki Emmott, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Emily H. Emmott p. 2 Abstract Due to the fact that human mothers often have multiple, vulnerable offspring with long periods of dependency, it is argued that mothers need assistance from allomothers to successfully provide and care for their children. Cross-cultural observations and quantitative research converge on support for the idea that mothers in high fertility, high mortality populations need assistance from other individuals for successful childrearing. It is also clear within the literature that there is variation across populations in terms of who matters: who provides the help, how they help, and how much impact they have on childrearing. The current thesis extends from previous studies by exploring the effects of allomothers on childrearing in a contemporary developed context: With economic development and the demographic transition, questions arise regarding the importance of allomothers for successful childrearing, and whether humans in these settings still operate as cooperative breeders. This thesis specifically focuses on quantitatively investigating the effects of fathers, stepfathers and grandparents on child development in the UK. First, using the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children, I investigate how direct investments from fathers and stepfathers affect multiple child outcomes. Second, using the UK Millennium Cohort Study, I investigate how direct and indirect investments from maternal and paternal grandparents affect parental investment levels, as well as multiple child outcomes.
