Give your dad a hug :)
A simple hug can mean the world. Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing dads out there!
Yep, hug ‘em while you still can. I love you Dad. You were and remain my hero.
Could not be with 80+ Father today; a work commitment.
Relationship with Dad had a couple rough spots during my early career years.
About 15 years ago, made a decision to treat every visit with Father as if it may be our last.
Father and I, many similar beliefs and a few different ones. I sure have valued these past two decades - we'll aim for some more!
My Pa passed in 1995...But this year, I called all my sons, who are also fathers, and wished them a happy father's day. Now we're all happy!! - :] P.S. My grand kids call me... Papa - :]
Hard to hug from hundreds of miles away, so sadly a phone call will have to do.

Its a beautiful thing!
Feliz día del padre!
Démosle un abrazo más a nuestro papá por todo lo que hizo por nosotros. En mi caso sacrificó muchas cosas para darme una buena educación. Te quiero mucho papá, eres y serás siempre mi héroe y guía. :]
So I should give my dad a hug because it's a tradition, rather than because I wish to do so? To me, that feels like a fake and forced form of affection.

Are you a character from Seinfeld?
Nobody said you are obligated to hug your parents. I give my parents hugs because, well, I love them. Nothing to do with tradition, and nothing fake about it.
