Answer 1

Parents are the mentors, guides, lawmakers, enforcers, counselors, examples, protectors, and saviors to their children. When I remember growing up (in a family of 13 children) I remember that my parents had strict rules for how we were expected to act and what we had to do. Even though it seemed that we had more freedom to run the neighborhood then, we never even went outside unless it was okay with mom or dad. I was going to write this little thing about how wonderful it was but, that would be a lie.
I love my parents and all of my siblings, but, it was nothing like the movies show large families to be. There was chaos at times and there are many memories in my mind that I would like to forget. I learned a lot from growing up that way and I think that I am stronger for it. I was able to take the good things that worked and apply them to my life and toss out the bad to break the chain.
I now have 7 of my own children and it isn't always fun but, I have no doubt in my mind that my children love me and that they know I love them. My children know that when I tell them no, I do it out of love and not spite.
When I was young, if I talked back or spoke out to my parents, I was punished. Punishment was in the form of soap or tobasco in the mouth or Dad's belt. When I became older, I gained some freedoms to be able to periodically question and then discuss things with my parents. Now I speak to them on even ground. I will always love and respect them even though I don't agree with all of their methods but, as I said before, I learned to be a better parent because of those experiences.
Notice that I have not said anything about parents being a friend. This is because parents should not be a friend to their children until the children are ready to make their own decisions. Your children don't want you to be a friend. Your job is to be a parent and always try to do what is best for your child. There is so much more to being a parent that it would take me a lifetime to tell it and I'm still learning what being a parent is all about. You have a nice day as well.

Answer 2

I am the mother of three small children ages 6, 3, and 11months. Being a parent is hard work. I know I have a big role in my kids life. Your kids look up to you when they are small. Think about it who do they see constantly. YOU. I always try to do whats right for my kids. I respect them as well as them respecting me. I give them love and attention daily. I try to teach them about honesty, responsibility, and just being a good person. I take them to church and we spend a lot of time together as a family. In order for me to teach them all those good things then I have to be a hardworking, responsible mother. At the end of the day when I put them to bed and kiss them goodnight, when they say I love you mommy, I know that I've done a pretty good job.

Answer 3

As a child
They were the teachers who taught me the really important life lessons. (As well as teaching me to read and write). They taught me to love, to be respectful, to stand up for myself, to be honest, to be trustworthy.

They were my safety.
They protected me from the boogeyman, from the monsters under the bed. They protected me from strangers and even from myself.

They were my best friends.
They let me tell them anything and everything without judgment. They were there through everything, no matter what, helping me up every time I fell, standing by my side even when friends bailed out.

They were my nurses, fixing every "owie" and fixing me every time I got sick, with never ending patience.

As an adult, they are still all of that.
They are still teaching me everything I'll need to know.
They help me out of any situation no matter what.
They refuse to judge me, but still let me know when I'm wrong.

My dad has taught me how to find a good man. How men should treat a woman.
My mom has taught me how to treat men as well, and together they showed me how to get away from the bad ones.

And they have taught me how to be a parent, and when I become one I will be 100% ready because of them.

They have been my cheerleader through childhood and now. Supporting me through everything, helping me in any way possible.
And teaching me how to take care of myself and how to be a productive adult, a good member of society.

If I had lost everyone in the world besides my parents, I wouldn't have felt a very big loss because my parents are so much to me. But if I lost only them, or only one of them, I would feel like I lost my world.

(And still, they are preparing me for the time that will come when I do lose them, because that is really unavoidable.)

Answer 4

Without parents what are you? They make you.
Keep you warm, safe and fed. Hopefully offering endless sleepless nights to hold and bond with you.

You (parents) are the reason for being you offer food, shelter and love. Hopefully unconditional love, that allows your kids to be their own person. Allow them to grow, learn and fail. So they succeed. You are a taxi, nurse, chef, banker, therapist, and a parent in one.

Instead of saying negative things turn it to a positive even in hard lessons of failure.

Parenting is a 100% around the clock job that I fear does not end even as you grandparent. Just more people to love and worry about.

It's also the hardest job alive with the most rewards.
