The relationship with our parents will be important throughout our lifetime and it can teach us valuable leadership qualities. We should cherish the relationship we have with our parents and show them appreciation so they know how important they are.

Being able show them appreciation, shows the effort we put in and encourages them to keep a good relationship with us. Not only to have a good relationship with our parents is important, but to keep it maintained too. There are many methods for maintaining a good relationship with our parents. It is important to learn the proper way to care for them throughout their lives.

The Importance Of Our Parents

We will not survive long in this world without the proper knowledge to keep ourselves safe. In order for us to take control of our own lives, we have to know how to do so. This is the most important part of our lesson. We have to learn how to fend for ourselves in case something should happen to one of our parents. Our parents are not our enemies. They are not even our allies.

They are people, who have information and influence. Because of this, there are benefits and drawbacks to them. Most of the time, our parents have our best interests at heart. Most of the time, this is indeed the case. Other times, they might be working against us. We have to be able to tell the difference between the two. The important thing to remember is that our parents will always love us and want what is best for us.

They are simply human beings, just like us. We can see things from different points of view and come to our own conclusions. Our lesson is not about hate, or even about forgiveness. It is about understanding and learning from our experience. If we can learn from our parents, then we will be better off. If not, then we might find, that our parents' lessons were not learned from either.

We will not know unless we try. This is a new lesson for us. One that will test us, but also one that will make us stronger. Our parents love us. Even if they don't always show it in the best way, they do indeed love us. We should not forget this. Their intentions are the best they know how to do, and we should not expect anything more or anything different from them.

What We Can Learn From Our Parents

When the children in a family are young, their parents usually spend more time taking care of them. As the children grow up, the parents still take an interest in their future, but they allow them to take the lead. This will be important to learn how to deal with the pressure of a major choice. This choice whether to enter the military or medical field could be a life or death situation.

As the child grows up, they will have to take responsibility of their own future and that begins at a very young age. Children need to learn how to take initiative. They should be taught, how to make good decisions for themselves as well as how to ask for help when they need it. Our parents will help guide us in the right direction, but ultimately the choice is ours.

We have to remember though, that sometimes asking for help can be seen as a sign of weakness. If we are to ever become a leader we have to be seen as strong. How well we can become independent is another lesson our parents will teach us. When we first start to live on our own the truth is we will probably still have a hard time. We will probably have to work a lot to support ourselves.

This is a big change from when our parents took care of us. We also have to make major life changes, such as getting a new job, a new place to live or having children. All of these major changes can be difficult, but if we work hard, we will eventually be able to become independent and self-sufficient. These life lessons will prepare us for the next major step in our lives, which is going out into the world and making our own way. The large world is not the small town we knew. The opportunities are endless and we have to be ready to take them.

How The Relationships With Our Parents Evolved

The relationship that children have with their parents is very important, but it is just the beginning. We have to take the lessons we learned from our parents and pass them on. The relationship you have with your parents teaches you the values, that will help guide you in life. This process starts as early as two years old and continues for many years.

As we grow up, we listen to our parents, we obey their rules, and we try to emulate them. This is a natural process, but it is also a process, that has to be kept in check. There are advantages and disadvantages to emulating our parents. We will take the positive aspects of their behavior and incorporate them into our own personalities. This can make us very friendly, reliable, and even courageous. These are all good traits to have.

However, we can become arrogant by thinking that these are the only good traits. We also might not try new things by being afraid of failing. This can make us inflexible and rigid about everything. There is no need to worry if our behavior is becoming too similar to our parents, because there are other ways of dealing with this process.

One of the most important things to remember is that we will change a lot in the future. Our parents didn't have to worry about this when they were our age, so we shouldn't either. We should be encouraged to do new things, both good and bad, as long as we are learning from them. This way we will always be growing and changing. When dealing with our parents, we can accept them for who they are. We cannot change them, but we can still have a positive relationship with them by accepting them for who they are.

This doesn't mean we have to like everything they do, but it does give us more freedom. Freedom is what leads to change, so it is best to embrace it. The relationship, that you have with your parents will change throughout the course of your life. Be open to these changes so that you can learn from them and grow as a person.

Maintaining A Good Relationship With Our Parents

As we grow up, our parents will still love us, but the way they show it might change. Instead of them yelling and disciplining us, they might give us advice. Instead of them rewarding us with things, they might point out our mistakes. They will still love us. We shouldn't forget this.

These lessons do not end with our schooling either. These life lessons do not just stop when we finish school, or even when we grow up. They will still be with us throughout our whole life. They might be harder to learn as we get older, but they will no doubt still be learned. These lessons will also stay the same the whole time, no matter what our age.

We should try our best to maintain these good relationships with our parents. They do love us, and want the best for us. Even if they aren't always the best teachers or guardians. If we can learn these lessons during our time here, then we will not have problems in the future. This is how we learn to become productive, functioning members of society.

We will become assets, rather than burdens. The things we say to our parents, might be repeated back to us. They might criticize us for the things we say. We need to make sure, that what we say is not a problem in the first place. If it doesn't require parental guidance or intervention, then we should keep it to ourselves.

I was inspired to write this article by one of articles written by @Ellehcim, which is titled: Ever Felt Lonely? Same. Make sure to read her article too.

The only people we can find unrequited love for are our parents. This is a good article that everyone should read, especially in their teens.

Thank you. I agree. Teens are hard to handle. Probably the hardest period of time when it comes to raise a child.

Yes, that's why I pointed to that period. The child who can understand the value of parents at that age will mature earlier.

Our relationship with our parents is very important. You are right, the way we treat and the things we do to our parents might come back to us in the future.

Also what we receive from them and what we see how they behave around us when we are children will reflect on our lives later as an adult. So they have a very important job to keep us happy and give us the best they can.

You're article is so informative Peter. Thank you so much for this. The parent is the one also why we are here in this world. Having a good relationship to them is really important since we commit a happiness in life compare to those people who have a misunderstanding with their parents.

If we have a life worries parents are mostly the first we approach for help and assistance. It's the best feeling for them to have a good relationship, no worries and it makes them happy to have a good life. That's why we should love and take care them in our whole life. They are the most important people in our lives.

Take care always Peter..🙏

Yes always. As we grow and know more about ourselves the way they deal with us change, but they still provide the best for us. We should do the same to them when they need our support.

Thank you so much for making an article about this. Whenever I always feel like disliking how my parents raise me, I always go back to basic: to think that they love me, and want the best for me.

When I try to think from this point of view, I then begin to understand why thay do what they do, and why they say such words. They might have a different thinking with me, but they just want the ultimate outcome, which is, whatever's the best for us.

Yes they always want the best for us even if it's seems like it is againts our will. I can experience this now. I want to give the best I can to my daughter, but sometimes she rejects that.

I'm ao lucky coz even I don't have my father in my side anymore I still have 3 mothers who's teaching a lot of things. Their advices and all. Though I can't show them how much I love them but in my heart I really love and truly care for them. They can be ao tight sometimes but all mothers are like that. For the love of their children.
