7 August is the annual observation of Respect For Parents Day, a day that was created as a reminder that parents deserve and require respect.
“This day was created in an attempt to make families become united and strong by recognising the leadership roles, as well as value in society, that parents have. By doing this, the respect for parents that was evident in the past, would be reinstated.”
These are the words of the creator of Respect For Parents Day, Marilyn Dalrymple form Lancaster, California.
Celebrate today by ensuring you are respectful to your parents in all things.
Encourage others to join in by using #RespectForParentsDay to post on social media.
