what are the important qualities of a good son and daughter? had these change or remained over time?

Answer 1

Now theres a question, we spend all of out lives trying to please our parents and live up to expectations (real or imagined). Stop doing this it has taken me a long time to realise that a good daughter or son is the person who is true to themselves - integrity within there own person - to be free of others ideas of a good person and be comfortable with who they are. The answer should be surely - what makes good parents are those who accept and embrace there children as individuals and not to put expectations on their children X

Answer 2

While growing up, my two daughters were completely different. All we can do as parents is give unconditional love, nurture and teach them by modeling our behavior. My wild child (now nearly 30) has grown into a loving and positive woman with 2 children of her own and a wonderful husband. She has a very good job and is a hard worker. My angel child also has 2 children but hooked up with a man none of us care for and they have not married. He is the daddy of both kids. But, she too is a hard worker and is very reliable and steady. I think the qualities we teach our kids don't show up until they are out on their own for a few years. Both my girls are devoted daughters in their own way.

I would say that a child who doesn't like disappointing their parents or who consistently tries to achieve and excel in their lives are important qualities. I would also say that being excited about being on their own when the time comes is also a good quality, because it says they are developing in a normal, healthy manner; also, that their parents have taught them well and they are ready to be on their own. I was very excited, and a bit scared, when my girls ventured out on their own. They made mistakes, but I am proud of their perseverance and their achievements. So, depending on the ages, qualities of children are hard to characterize, because it comes full circle over the years.

At different stages different things....
Definitely the ability to make you laugh even when you are angry at them!
Absorbing the values that mean so much to you and making them their own without slighting your beliefs.
Going through the teen years without making you fell like a dried up old prune!
To support and understand you without malice when they have reached adulthood and you are getting older and forgetful!
Being able to recognise the you that has always existed when the roles of parent child are reversed as you age.
Truth be told we all want our kids to be miniatures of ourselves and sometimes they are!
Lastly , no I don't think the qualities have changed much over time.
