A father is the hero for his child. S/He learns about life through the father’s eyes. More than that, a father’s support, guidance and inspiration helps his child to be someone one day in society. From the time one is born till his/her death, there is his/her father’s influence. That influence shapes the overall life and future of his child. Father’s Day falls on September 13 this year and this day is all about honouring one’s father and celebrating fatherhood. Some students share with Sangita Shrestha what lessons they learnt from their father and how their father has helped them in their educational journey

My father has helped me morally and financially for my education. My father has always motivated me to study hard and to be someone in the future. My father knew the value of education and for us he can do anything. My father guided me to get a scholarship for my further studies to become a doctor. He gave his support and that is why today I got the scholarship and am studying to pursue my dream to be a doctor. From him I learned to work hard and to try till I get success and also that one should not be hot tempered.

 My father says he will support me in my education and has told that whatever I want to study, he will support me. But he always says not to expect to inherit his wealth as he will need it to enjoy his life. He has taught me to accept the world as it is and if it’s possible, to make others happy, but if you cannot, then don’t make others unhappy too.
