Father's Day: help Dad be part of the conversationFather's Day: Help your dad be part of the conversation
Contributed by Lisa Packer Whether your dad taught you to change a tire, pick the best stocks or appreciate the subtleties of a Bach Sonata in G minor, he shaped who you are in countless ways. There is no question that fathers, stepfathers and other father figures play a valuable role in our lives. Spending time together on Father’s Day can let Dad know just how much he means to you. Many of us plan parties or family gatherings to celebrate Father’s Day, and some of us just plan a quiet visit with Dad. You may have tickets to a baseball game, or maybe you’ve planned a day of fishing at the lake, but have you planned for his hearing loss? ![]() Day fun. According to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), one third of Americans between ages 65 and 74 and almost half of those over age 75 have hearing loss. In fact, hearing loss is the third-most common chronic health condition facing adults. And men between the ages of 20 and 69 are twice as likely to have hearing loss as women. If your father has hearing loss, there are steps you can take to make sure he has the most enjoyable Father’s Day possible.
Remember, a tie or a signed book by his favorite author might be thoughtful and appreciated, but sometimes the gift that can’t be wrapped is the one that means the most. What your dad wants most is a chance to have an enjoyable, relaxing Father’s Day spent with those he loves. By being attentive to his hearing needs you can ensure that even with hearing loss, he knows how much he means to you. And, if Dad hasn't looked into getting help for his hearing loss, lend your support and encourage him to visit a hearing care professional. With proper hearing help, next Father's Day could be even better!
