Having my own DS in reception has made me realise that schools tend to stuff for Mother's Day and Father's Day. They've made cards for example for both days. From talking to a number of people this is common across schools. And where the child hasn't got a father around, the teacher tends to help the child instead recognise the grandfather, whatever, instead.
Yet, there was not one single occasion when my DSSs were at primary school and brought so much as a card round, not even once. Is it really likely that this one particular school did nothing ever for Fathers Day? Across 9 years? It has just occurred to me that this is really strange.
