Dad Pauses To Consider His Roles Serious reflection on what it means to be a father has traditionally accompanied the customary tributes and gift-giving practices of Father’s Day. As this year’s Father’s Day — June 15th — draws near, even closer examination of the roles, responsibilities and rewards of fatherhood appear urgent, according to Sig Schlesinger, executive director of the Father’s Day Committee. The official national recognition that has been accorded Father’s Day for nearly 60 years has its roots in the values of family life, family stability and its vital contribution to society’s cohesiveness. Challenge to and rejection by the young of many of the values held by their parents is on the increase, and it is evident that fathers need to assert their willingness to help resolve generational differences and bridge the gap between them and their offspring, says Mr. Schlesinger. The National Father’s Day Committee, a group dedicated to year-round efforts to uphold the idea of fatherhood, continues its custom of selecting exemplary fathers from the worlds of statecrafts, sports, arts and letters and the performing arts as “Fathers of the Year.” This year’s Fathers of the Year, as in the past known primarily in their public roles, are in the privacy of their homes quietly devoted to the well-being of their children. Keep It Clean, Dad Inexpensive yet useful gag gift for Father on his day might be a set of three brooms: a whisk broom to be carried in the glove compartment of his car: a toysize broom for the trunk compartment, for sweeping out the car interior wherever he may stop; and a full-size kitchen broom for use in the family garage. Wrap them all together as one package with a card saying, “Keep It Clean, Dad.”
