my mom and i had a really rough time when i was growing up, i said on a constant basis how much i hated her, but now, i'm 23, and she is my best friend, my confidant, my rock. I love my mom more than anyone i've ever known, and would do ANYTHING for her.
If you love your parents, you love your parents. it is completely a personal thing, you cant tell me how to feel, i can't tell you how to feel.
Good luck figuring yourself out.... it'll get better - it always does.

There is no one reason why we should love our parents. I love my parents because they have taught me good morals, values, traditions, everything. My dad is a full blown alcoholic, he has offended me and called me aweful names and sometimes I dont know why I put up with him, but then he shows me how much he actually does love me and I remember why I keep him in my life. We fight and scream, but when all is said and done he's the one that helped give me life. He raised me well. And regardless of him telling me that I'm a failure and calling me names I always respond to his remarks with "You raised me, if that's they kind of person you think you raised, well then I feel sorry for you, but I wont be insulted with your words because I know what kind of person I am and not all the ugly words in the world will make me believe otherwise." If it werent for his strict discipline I dont think I would be the person I am today. And my mother...In my eyes, my mother is a saint, there is nothing that my mother can do wrong. She's perfect in my eyes.

You should love your parents if they deserve your love. I love my parents, but they earned. They were in no way perfect parents and still aren't. But they always did their very best to raise me and take care of me when I was a child and they still do it today even though I'm married and have kids of my own.
By the way, I am not a perfect parent either, but my kids still love me.

God called my Mother home while I was just a baby but I love her for giving me life with 2 great sisters.I was raised by my Father and a wonder full stepmother.I love them for teaching me about life and for a great half brother and 2 great half sisters,and the way they showed all of us the right path to take in our life's and the love we all had for each other.There aren't enough words or space to tellll all the reasons but these are some of te most important ones.I treas her every second we had together I wouldn't trade one moment for anything.Who knows how it would have been if my mother would have lived but I'am sure it couldn't have been much better.
OH God I love my family so much.

you should love your parents because they go (or went) through a lot to have you. your mom and dad made you. this deserves love, no questions asked. also, even if they are jerks (or if you think they are) it doesn't matter, they are the authority over you. you don't have to love them, technically. no one is pulling your arm (or shouldn't anyway) to love your parents. you need to put yourself down and realize the pain and fear they went through having you as a child. whether they are raising or have raised you right is debateable. also, whether they are good parents or not is also debateable, but what isn't debateable is that you owe them at least a little love for what they do or have done. that is a given.

they raised you and they made you the person you are.
its one thing if your parents left you for some reason or whatever. the circumstances will change but if they treated you well and raised you good[every parents is not perfect] then they deserve your love.
wouldnt you want your kids to love you?
i know how you feel. some times its like why the hell do they deserve our love, but if you think about it. they love you a whole lot.

Well, they didn't exactly ask for you when they had you - they didn't know what they would get. And yet, they put up with you, pay for your food, clothes, house, energy bills, etc.
So, you should love them because of all they do for you.
And also - it is much easier and comfortable at home if you are civil and kind to your parents.
