    People in the United States honor their parents with two specific days, Mother's Day on the<br />second Sunday in May and Father's Day on the third Sunday in June.<br />During these days, Americans show love and respect for their parents.<br />Parents raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens.<br />They give their children love and care.<br />These two days give us a chance to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers.<br />More mothers now work outside the home.<br />More fathers must help with childcare.<br />These two special days are celebrated in many different ways.<br />On Mother's Day, people often wear carnations and families get together at home as well<br />as in restaurants.<br />They often have outdoor picnics for Father's Day.<br />These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.<br />Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.<br />Children can make them in school.<br />Many people make cards for their own parents.<br />These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.<br />It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is the thought that counts.
