Thanks, Dad!

May 29, 2019

This Father’s Day, we say thank you to all the dads out there! Whether you go by Dad, Daddy, Father, Pop, Papa, Old Man or any other name, we salute you!

And so do your children. We asked local elementary school teachers to pose these questions to their students. We hope you enjoy their thoughtful responses!

1. What’s the most important thing a Dad does in his family?
2. What is your favorite thing to do with your Dad?
3. What do you love most about your Dad?
4. What advice would you give a Dad to help him understand his kids?

1. Keeps the family safe.
2. He takes me out places and I get to spend alone time with him.
3. He is really funny and caring.
4. I would say yes whenever his kids ask for something.

1. He helps others when they need help.
2. Go outside and play basketball, because we are the only ones that do it.
