from United States on July 29, 2022:
Pamela and Laura,
If you are writing to a father who is wrongly accused, and in prison, then you will have to come up with something appropriate for that situation. Here is an example that might work:
"Happy Father's day dad. You are my dad no matter where you are and I miss seeing you. Stay strong and take care of yourself. I hope you can feel the love I have for you this Father's day."
Maybe you could write something similar that works for you.
laura on July 29, 2022:
i agree with Pamela i dont know what to write on behalf of my 2 year old daughter as her daddy is in prison and as we believe wrongly accused we all miss him and love him but i cant write that he has been a great father because we only see him 4 hours a month so what words are there for absent fathers?
