Should single moms respect fathers day?

Post by Advo »

I came across alot of posts of single moms going off on their kids dads and wishing themselves a happy fathers day. It's unfortunate if the relationship didn't work out but please respect fathers day. Let those who had the pleasure of having a great dad in their life celebrate it by acknowledging all he has done and contributed in raising his children.

It's difficult to respect a man who shows up one a week or less and barely provides for his child, including in terms of child rearing. Guys love to blast a woman who is bitter, but you forget that a child is 24 hours, for 18 years minimum. She alone is shouldering what most men feel as just being financial obligations, when it goes much further than that.

How about we respect mothers who have to raise their children alone? :)

Oh I definitely agree, nothing beats mother day and they should get all the praises in the world.

But can we have one day for fathers without the interruption of the said group. :?

True, I give full support to all fathers who understand the gravity of being a father. Much love and support to them. They are very underappreciated.

Why is this a talking point among geeljires! Blessed mums should have Mother's Day atleast once a week! even on so called Father's Day!
Remember three slices of the love pie goes to the mum and maybe one slice to the father even if he is the best dad out there!

Ps Ramadan Mubarak evo and advo :up:

Father's day is a made up holiday it is a retail holiday so you are a sucker if you celebrate it. Having said that if I was raised by mom and mom only it would be extremely disrespectful to bring up an absentee father or expect her to respect a made up holiday. Shout out to all the hooyos who play both roles.

Seems like only those with culture understand a child's duty to their mothers (And fathers). I agree, it's made up holidays because businesses need to sell, but also because kids in the west forget who brought them into this world unless they are reminded!!

MoAwr walaal gacaliye, Ramadan Kareem to you too! :heart:

Made up holiday or not, women should respect Father's Day.
You won't see single fathers trying to hijack Mother's Day...

Everyday is a happy father's day and happy mother's day. No specific day should be selected, and for us (Muslims), we shouldn't fall into this trap of specific day for mothers, fathers, birthday, marriage celebration, blah blah. It is all nonsense and waste of money if you go out and buy things for those days.

I noticed Hodan Nalayeh put this on her Page, saying how shes mum and dad to her kids, etc. But why do people assume if the man left the woman then his definitely a bad father. Just cos he divorced her stupid ass don't mean his bad father to his kids, and most of the time they don't see the kids because she makes it so hard, by giving you hard time and using the kids as a tool. I know one really good father with 2 kids, divorced his ex, she goes around telling people what a bad father he is. But we all know when they were married he was a good father, because he left her she made it impossible for him to see his kids and now he gave up on the kids, I don't blame him.
