Fatherly's Guide to Father's Day
Father's Day has long been a time to celebrate and reflect on changing roles of fatherhood. Here's how to celebrate Father's Day 2023.
What does it mean to be a dad in the 21st century? It means keeping kids safe and helping to shepherd them on to a happy, healthy independence; being both reliable and ridiculous, because sometimes ridiculousness is what’s needed. Dads are more involved than ever in the nitty-gritty of parenting — but they’re also finding new ways to express their authentic, curious selves while still going all-in on raising great kids.
Father’s Day is the celebration of a feeling, passed back and forth between kid and dad until, if all goes well, the former delivers the latter a heartfelt eulogy many decades into the future. It’s a celebration of men who know themselves, who find the good and leverage it toward raising someone who strives to do better still. In other words, it’s a celebration of love. Happy Father’s Day to each and every dad out there playing their role, passing on the love.
