Is it Father's Day or Single Mother's day?

We don’t have this conversation on Mother’s Day, so why today? Single mothers do not play the role of both parents; she does the best she can as a mother. There is still a void with an absent father. Women, stop telling these men it’s ok to be absent because you got it…they’re not needed. I was raised by a single mother and with both parents in the household and there is a significant difference. Any other day of the year women would not argue that men and women are completely different. We communicate, problem solve, eat, poop, encourage others, process information, and even smell different. Mother’s Day is a month before Father’s Day for a reason…let these men have their day.
