Aia ka lā Makua ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa ma ka lā Sābati ʻekolu o Iune. Hoʻolauleʻa ia i ka hāʻawi ʻana o nā makua kāne a me nā kiʻi makua no ke ola o kā lākou mau keiki.

Aia paha kona kumu i loko o kahi hana hoʻomanaʻo i mālama ʻia no kahi hui nui o nā kāne, ʻo ka hapa nui o lākou he mau makua kāne, ka poʻe i pepehi ʻia ma kahi ulia pōpilikia ma Monongah, West Virginia i ka makahiki 1907.

He lā hoʻomaha lehulehu ka lā makua?

ʻAʻole hoʻomaha federal ka lā Makua. Wehe a pani ʻia nā hui, nā ʻoihana a me nā hale kūʻai, e like me lākou ma nā Lāpule ʻē aʻe o ka makahiki. Holo nā ʻōnaehana kaʻa lehulehu i kā lākou papa hana maʻamau o ka Lāpule. ʻOi aku ka paʻahana o nā hale ʻaina ma mua o ka mea maʻamau, no ka mea, lawe kekahi poʻe i ko lākou mau makua kāne i kahi meaʻai.

Ma ke kānāwai, he lā hoʻomaha mokuʻāina ka Lā Makua ma Arizona. Eia naʻe, no ka hāʻule mau ʻana i ka lā Sābati, mālama ka hapa nui o nā keʻena aupuni a me nā limahana i kā lākou papa hana Sabati ma ia lā.

He aha nā kānaka e hana ai?

ʻO ka lā Makua he manawa e hōʻailona ai a e hoʻolauleʻa ai i ka haʻawina a kou makuakāne ponoʻī i hana ai i kou ola. Nui ka poʻe e hoʻouna a hāʻawi i nā kāleka a i nā makana i ko lākou mau makua kāne. ʻO nā makana o ka lā Makua maʻamau ka mea haʻuki a i ʻole nā ​​lole, nā mea uila uila, nā lako kuke waho a me nā mea hana no ka mālama ʻana i ka hale.

He lā hoʻomaha hou ka Lā Makua no laila he ʻano kuʻuna like ʻole nā ​​ʻohana. Hiki ke loaʻa kēia mau mea mai ke kelepona kelepona maʻalahi a i ʻole kāleka aloha i nā pāʻina nui e hoʻohanohano ana i nā kiʻi 'makua' a pau i loko o kahi ʻohana lōʻihi. Hiki i nā kiʻi makua kāne ke hoʻokomo i nā makua kāne, nā makua kāne, nā makuahōnōwai kāne, nā kupuna kāne a me nā kupuna kāne a me nā ʻohana kāne ʻē aʻe. I nā lā a me nā pule ma mua o ka lā Makua, nui nā kula a me nā kula Sābati e kōkua i kā lākou mau haumāna e hoʻomākaukau i kāleka lima a i ʻole makana liʻiliʻi no ko lākou mau makua kāne.

Ka hope a me nā hōʻailona

Nui nā hanana, i hoʻoikaika paha i ka manaʻo o ka Lā Makua. ʻO kekahi o kēia ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka moʻomeheu Mother's Day i nā makahiki mua o ke kenekulia 20. ʻO kekahi, he hana hoʻomanaʻo i mālama ʻia i ka makahiki 1908 no kahi hui nui o nā kāne, he mau makua kāne ka nui o lākou, i make i kahi pōpilikia eli ma Monongah, West Virginia i Dekemaba 1907.

ʻO kahi wahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Sonora Smart Dodd he mea koʻikoʻi i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i ka lā Makua. Ua hānai kona makuakāne iā ia iho i ʻeono keiki ma hope o ka make ʻana o ko lākou makuahine. He mea maʻamau kēia i kēlā manawa, ʻoiai he nui nā wahine kāne make i waiho i kā lākou mau keiki i ka mālama ʻana a i ʻole e mare koke.

Ua hoʻoikaika ʻia ʻo Sonora e ka hana a Anna Jarvis, nāna i hoʻoikaika i ka hoʻolauleʻa ʻana i ka lā makuahine. Ua manaʻo ʻo Sonora he pono ke ʻike ʻia kona makuakāne no kāna hana. ʻO ka manawa mua i mālama ʻia ai ka lā Makua i Iune i ka makahiki 1910. Ua ʻike ʻia ka lā makua ma ke ʻano he lā hoʻomaha ma 1972 e Pelekikena Nixon.
