Tomorrow is Fathers' Day. I haven't a clue as to who started that day. I do remember marrying Rhoda on Fathers' Day, but that was 25 years ago and this year it's on June 15. I'm of the opinion that perhaps Macy's or Nordstrom fostered that day upon the unsuspecting masses, but it did give many people an opportunity to go to the mall and do some shopping...for ties, perhaps; or underwear. I recall, some years ago I wore bikini underwear. Now I need to go to a Sumo wrestling store. But enough of this useless blabbering. What we need to do is to undertake an understanding of what a father is supposed to be and to do.
No matter how tired a father is when he comes home from work, he must give his children some attention; play with them before dinner or ask them what they did all day and how they did in school. A father must also provide protection for his offspring; he must try to see
that they don't get hurt, but if they do, he must provide comfort and security. A father must also show the children that he and their mother have a warm loving relationship. A father must never strike a child, especially when the child is 50+ and father is 84.

A father must learn when and how to discipline a child in the event they misbehave. Make the punishment fit the crime. For example, if the child is 50+ and in prison, make sure he knows not to do it again or you would cut him out of your will. You could use the two grand to pay for his lawyer fees. At his very best, a father must be a loving, caring patriarch of the family.
