Everyone knows Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, but not many people know about Parents’ Day. This started in July 1994. President Bill Clinton signed a law that made the fourth Sunday of July a day we can celebrate both of our parents. The law says Parents’ Day is for "recognizing, uplifting, and supporting the role of parents in the rearing 1 of children”. The day came about because of campaigning by religious leaders. They decided 2 it was important to have a day to promote responsible parenting. Parents must also celebrate their children on this day. One important theme is to strengthen the idea of the traditional, two-parent family. Campaigners say the increase in one-parent families is leading to a rise in social problems.
所有人都知道母亲节和父亲节，但许多人还不知道有父母节。父母节开始于1994年的7月。克林顿总统签署法案，将7月的第四个周日定为父母节。据该法案表示，此节日旨在认识养育儿女的艰辛，为父母提供支持和鼓励。宗教人士的不断宣扬是该节日设立的原因。他们认为该节日可宣扬父母责任感。在这一天，父母也可以为自己的孩子庆祝一番。该节日的重要主题之一就是巩固传统意义上的双亲家庭。活动人士称单亲家庭的不断增加将加重社会问题。
Parenthood is the most important responsibility any of us can have. The parent-child relationship is the most powerful human bond 3. Becoming and being a parent brings countless 4 joys and happiness. It becomes the responsibility of every parent to uphold 5 their duty of raising their God-given gift with love, care and support. Being a parent can be an almost life-long endeavour. One of the most popular activities in many communities is to honor 6 "Parents of the Year". It is an almost impossible decision to make because there are so many truly wonderful parents. Make sure that on this Parent’s Day, your parents and children know exactly how special and important they are.
父母肩负着最重要的责任。亲子关系是人类的重要纽带。成为父母的你会享受无尽的快乐和幸福。每一位父母都有责任用爱，关怀和支持来养育子女。父母几乎是一部终身奋斗史。最为热闹的社区活动要数“年度父母”评选。由于优秀父母太多，我们几乎很难做出最终决定。在父母节，父母和子女都要认识到自己那特殊而又重要的地位。
