Fathers Day Thanks and a Chance to Nap
A reflective column links Father's Day gifts to sleep and leisure, then honors dads by sharing personal stories of changing roles. It notes dads increasingly stay home, about 2 million in 2012, and cites Pew and Census data on time use and caregiving. The author recalls his Greek immigrant father, who built a life from little, and concludes that acknowledging fathers' successes may matter more than gifts, perhaps even a nap.
