NEW YORK CITY – Central Park visitors in the Big Apple shared the best advice they received from their dads to celebrate Father's Day.
"My dad always says to live in the moment," one woman told Fox News. "You’re never going to experience the same things again."
Father's Day, celebrated June 19 this year, was signed into law in 1976. The holiday was designated for the third Sunday in June each year.
"My father always preached: be careful," Jacob, himself a father, said. "I’ve never really broken a bone or really hurt myself just because I always kept that in the back of my head."
