The first ever superhero any child meets in their own life is their father. In the life of every children, they need someone who can be a superhero for them; a real-life protector, a savior and the ultimate real-life paladin-that person, unequivocally is the father a superhero. Fathers play a role in every child’s life that cannot be replaced by others. This role can have a larger impact on a child and help shape him or her into the person they become.
Fathers, like mothers, are the strongest foundation in the development of a child’s emotional well-being. Children look up to their fathers to set certain rules to emulate. They also need their fathers to provide a feeling of dependability and security, both physical and emotional. Children want to make their fathers proud, and an involved father promotes inner growth and strength. Studies have shown that when fathers are loving and supportive, it greatly affects a child’s cognitive and social development. It also promotes an overall sense of well-being and self-confidence. Every father is a constant support system and mentor for their child. .
The way a father treats his child will influence what he or she looks for in other people. Friends, lovers, and spouses will all be chosen based on how the child takes in the meaning of the relationship with his or her father. The patterns a father sets in the relationships with his children will determine how his children relate with other people. Mother’s sacrifice is given a high position in every civilization and culture. However, the person who dedicates his whole life for the happiness of his children should get the same respect as of mother. The day we celebrate Mother’s day is a tribute to mothers; similarly, Father’s day is the day we pay homage to fathers for their unconditional love and care. Father’s Day is a day in the year when children give their father presents and gifts and one big thing, which is love. Father’s Day is just one day, but what about each day of the year?
This day is celebrated to express gratitude to the father. The father is the person who pays all his duty without expressing his grief and pain. I personally think that father’s status, almost across all societies, is a bit underrated compared to that of mothers but his divine role is undeniably irreplaceable. Our father gives us a lesson about good and bad in the world. We do not need to worry about anything as long our father’s hand is on our forehead. They always keep grief to themselves and give us happiness. We should never forget our father’s struggles. We should always reciprocate the sacrifices of our fathers by showing them immense love and also by turning ourselves to a better version of what they had dreamt us to be. I wish you all a very happy Fathers’ Day. There is no doubt that my father’s role is important in my life. Your presence is important in maintaining equality and peace in my family. The father is the one who gets the bad daddy’s badge and his denial of anything means a lot to the kids. I also respect my father and try to develop the qualities needed to be like him when I grow up.
