US Presidential Proclamation - Fathers Day

http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/presidential-proclamation-fathers-day

From the first moments of life, the bond forged between a father and a child is sacred.  Whether patching scraped knees or helping with homework, dads bring joy, instill values, and introduce wonders into the lives of their children.  Father's Day is a special time to honor the men who raised us, and to thank them for their selfless dedication and love.
Fathers are our first teachers and coaches, mentors and role models.  They push us to succeed, encourage us when we are struggling, and offer unconditional care and support.  Children and adults alike look up to them and learn from their example and perspective.  The journey of fatherhood is both exhilarating and humbling    it is an opportunity to model who we want our sons and daughters to become, and to build the foundation upon which they can achieve their dreams.

Nice words from Obama regarding the role of fatherhood within modern society. Pity the justice system didn't value and respect fatherhood the same. Talk is cheap Mr Politician.Everybody knows that good dads get shafted by the gender bias Family Court that is solely designed to a create huge fractured family business that is heartbreaking for all the vulnerable children and forced male clients!
