Happy Father’s Day to all dads, granddads, and dads-to-be!
Fatherhood has changed quite a bit over the years. Once upon a time, the father’s role was to work and earn money for the family, leaving child-raising to mothers. Recent years have seen this balance evening out, with fathers taking on more parenting duties.
COVID-19 has been a litmus test for dads across Singapore. The pandemic has been both a challenge and an opportunity for dads to not just help raise their children, but also develop closer bonds with their kids.
Between WFH and HBL, parents understandably have a lot to juggle right now. But children grow up faster than you think, and the memories you form with them will last a lifetime. To all dads here and those who can’t be with your families for now, I hope you all have a special Father’s Day! – LHL
