People should be shamed for using Father's Day to praise single mothers

Every year on Father's Day the social media tags almost always get hijacked to show love to "single mothers who raised me without a father". On Mother's Day the amount of people praising their father is so minuscule it barely registers. On this next Father's Day, and every fathers day after, I don't want to hear any praise for your single mom. They have Mother's Day, women's day, women's month, their birthday, Valentine's Day and I'm guessing there is a single moms day at this point

We as a society need to actively start saying stuff to people when Father's Day (one of the only days officially recognizing dads or even men in general) gets hijacked to spend more time praising mothers.
