First Lady encourages absentee fathers to mend their ways : –and embrace fatherhood

THE following is a message sent all fathers, particularly those whose roles are exemplary, on this auspicious day by Guyana’s First Lady, Madame Deolatchmee Ramotar. It reads: “I SEND special greetings to all the fathers of Guyana. We are truly blessed to have within our midst so many good men, single-mindedly dedicated to the wellbeing  of their families, and who continue to inspire, guide, protect, care and provide for their families. They are fine examples of fatherhood.
“Unfortunately, there remain in our society too many fathers that are avoidably absent from the lives of their children. I wish to encourage them to find ways of being part of their children’s lives because a father-figure is important in the upbringing of our sons and daughters.
“Children, too, should work towards becoming closer to their fathers, since in so doing, the family is strengthened and strong families, as we know, make better communities and societies.
“I conclude with the fervent wish that this Fathers’ Day will witness sincere attempts to strengthening the bonds between child and father.
“Happy Fathers’ Day to all the outstanding fathers of Guyana!”
