Happy son and daughters day Son and Daughter Day wanted parents to acknowledge the joy their children bring into their lives. The bond between parents and their sons and daughters is a very special one. It endures age and distance. No matter how old a person gets, their parents still see him or her as a child - someone to protect and to shower love on. So, take this day to tell your sons and daughters how much they mean to you and that you respect them and love them.
