More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. Its also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues (野烤野餐) for Fathers Day.
