From Mother's Day to Father's Day: Belarus is celebrating Parental Love Week!

 October 14 is Mother's Day. The holiday symbolically coincides with the Feast of the Protection of the Holy Virgin—an image of protection and boundless maternal love that shields children from all adversity. October 21 is Father's Day. Established in 2022, this holiday emphasizes the important role of fathers in a child's upbringing and development. The seven days between these dates are united into Parental Love Week—a time to once again say "thank you" to the most important people in our lives for their care, support, and warmth. Show your parents some love—call them, hug them, say some kind words!
