I think mother’s Day is for all the mothers out there and the daddies who are taking care of the kids their self without a mom deserves to be recognized on mother’s Day and on Father’s Day it should be the same way with the mom celebrating Father’s Day

Women are mothers and celebrate Mother’s Day. Men are fathers and celebrate Father’s Day. Unless your kids are small and made a gift at school, why would you accept a Father’s Day gift?:woman_shrugging:t4:

I’m a single mom and while it does require alot more work but that doesn’t mean I am also father. I can never be one. The same as a single father can never be a mother. There are gender dynamics for a reason. I think it’s kinda offensive for women to try to take that day away from the men who actually step up and do their jobs as father’s, they’re the only ones who should be being celebrated.

I told my kids it’s “kids day!” And we are going to the park, lunch and swimming. Kids need a day too and it’s a good reason to spend the day together.
