Of course on the tax payers dime, is having Fathers day parties at over 200 section 8 housing, thanking fathers for sticking around their kids.
Really you need to be thanked by the Gooberment for doing something that no one should have to ask you to do. By the way Obama is the one that wanted this done. I know the one in Tampa very few fathers showed up “Saturday’s events speak directly to President Obama’s recently announced Fatherhood and Mentoring Initiative, Strong Fathers, Strong Families,” said HUD Secretary Shaun Donovan, himself a father of two. “Children with involved fathers grow up happier, healthier and better prepared to succeed in life. Yet every night, one-out-of-three American kids go to bed in a home without a father present. Our hope is the resources provided at these events will leave fathers feeling stronger and better prepared in their desire to be the best parents they can be.” http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/press/press_releases_media_advisories/2011/HUDNo.11-124 |
