Dear old dad doesnB次元官网网址檛 get the same level of celebration as mom does on her special day, according to a study released by RetailMeNot on Tuesday.

The survey found that FatherB次元官网网址檚 Day just isnB次元官网网址檛 a big deal to 49 per cent of Canadians. And men are more than a little bet upset about it; 81 per cent believe that MotherB次元官网网址檚 Day outshines FatherB次元官网网址檚 Day and 40 per cent of dads are upset when their kids forget about them.

Even when kids do remember to celebrate their dads come June, RetailMeNot found they donB次元官网网址檛 do it to the same degree as they did for mom: on average, kids spend $50 less on dad than they do on mom.

B次元官网网址淒ads typically donB次元官网网址檛 ask for much. In fact, the number one thing they want for FatherB次元官网网址檚 Day is a simple dinner at home, indicating they just want to spend time with family,B次元官网网址 said RetailMeNot shopping and trends expert Sara Skirboll. B次元官网网址淲hy not take this one step further and gift him something that will bring you together, such as a pair of baseball gloves or a GPS for a fun family road trip.B次元官网网址
