Family is the microcosmic rudimentary element that makes up the society structure. For this structure to remain firm, the family unit needs to create a strong foundation. This role is shouldered by responsible parents who do understand their imperative role in shaping their child's life to grow up into a responsible citizen. At the same time, this day impresses upon the younger generation that one day, they must also take on the serious responsibility of looking after the needs of parents and older family members. Besides, Parents' Day is also a good occasion to make up for lost time, iron out issues and to wipe out any bitterness from this enduring relationship.
