The day will be commemorated under the theme \u2018working together for a better future.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cThe theme is to encourage acceptance and love, among other aspects that need to be practiced for the betterment of all family members and also to help them live amicably despite the challenges they encountered in their everyday lives,\u201d explained Lesetedi.<\/p>\n

She further said the day\u2019s commemoration was also intended to encourage communication in a family setting. She said some families became dysfunctional as a result of a lack of communication and failure to use the proper approach when addressing issues at hand.<\/p>\n
