But as a society we know how a girl child forms an important role and she is special. To honour these very girls, Daughter's Day 2020 is held every year.

A daughter should be raised just as equally as a son and taught equally well, nurtured and loved just as much. The celebrations could involve telling her what makes her and girls like her special, giving her little gifts, teaching the importance of girls, cooking her favourite food or the likes. It is all about daughters and appreciating them. Ahead of National Daughter's Day on Sunday, we wish every girl/woman Happy Daughter's Day!
