Where and when is Father's Day celebrated

For the first time the idea of celebrating Father's Day came to the US back in 1909. It was at this time that the large child head of the William Jackson family had a sixth child. After receiving the long-awaited baby, he lost his beloved wife, but was able to independently raise healthy and full-fledged children. One of his daughters thought of expressing gratitude to his father for the fact that he alone nurtured and raised her and five other brothers and sisters. Then the woman asked the local authorities to establish a new holiday for the fathers. The event was to take place on the birthday of William Smith, a large child, on June 5, but passed only on the 19th, as there was not enough time to prepare the holiday. After that Father's Day became popular also in other countries.

Thanks to this brave man and his children, in many places celebrate this holiday - in the US, in the Netherlands, in the UK, in France, in China.

Father's Day is an event that, according to former President Calvin Coolidge, will strengthen the relationship between children and their dads, and it should remind the heads of the family of their responsibilities in raising a child. But still this celebration was officially accepted only in 1972. Starting from this year, and to this day every third Sunday in June, Father's Day is celebrated, where all loving children give roses to their dads. If the father is dead, white flowers are brought to his grave, and if he is in full health, then they give red roses.

In each country this holiday is celebrated at different times. And so, to the question - Father's Day, what number, you can answer that around the world this event is coping all year round. Most celebrate it in June, but Australia and Ukraine, for example, holds a celebration in September, Sweden in November, Georgia and Italy in March, Brazil in August. As for Russia, there is still no official adoption of this holiday. But still in some Russian places people take part in this event. Currently, Father's Day is celebrated by such cities as Perm, Novosibirsk, Dimitrovgrad, Cherepovets, Volgograd, Lipetsk, Kurchatov, Kursk, Ulyanovsk.

Although many deputies support the initiative to introduce this celebration to Russia, some authorities do not agree to establish this holiday for various reasons.

Some representatives of the parliament declare that such an event already exists - this is February 23. Also, most of the opinions came to the conclusion that the father is a constant value that does not need a celebration, unlike the mother. It is advisable to leave the holiday on March 8, when all mothers can be thanked for the wonderful birth and birth of children.

In Russia, to approve such a holiday is not in a hurry, but come to the opinion to establish a family day that can revive lost morality. Opinions differ, so far not all countries prefer to enter this holiday, referring to the fact that not every father deserved such an event.

At the moment, many residents of different countries and cities can express their gratitude and love for the heads of the family. Congratulations to the father on his birthday can be very different, given the wishes and character of the parent.

Let's hope that soon every Russian will celebrate this wonderful holiday. If to judge that not every father deserves a good relationship, then it is possible to note modern mothers who do not want to raise a child and give it to orphanages. But still for such "moms" is - International Women's Day. The question of introducing a father's day in Russia will continue to worry many people for many years. Many representatives of the heads of the family are quite worthy of this holiday, because a modern man is more anxious, responsible and sensitive to the upbringing of his baby.
