Are Mother's Day and Father's Day actually the same holiday a month apart?

A month ago, my paper was full of ads from companies selling places and events for fathers to take their kids to without mom in attendance, so mom could have a peaceful day.

Now we're full of ads from the same companies selling places and events for fathers to take their kids to without mom in attendance, so dad can "bond" with his children.

There's a difference?
