No. There is always something they are going to be conected by, their child whether you like it or not. They will have a lot of issues as parents that they need to talk about. If you love his child at all, you will be greatful for that because the child has both his parents in his life and they get along which is even better.

My mother is one of the smartest, wisest and rational people I know. The times I did NOT take her advice are the times I regret. She is a wonderful resource for information because she loves me and has my best interest at heart. If I fail, she fails. If I succeed, she succeeds. I may still bolster her advice with that of an expert in whatever field we're talking, but mom never claimed to be an expert at anything except caring about me. Sometimes, that's enough.

I think parents just want what is best for their kids and tend to go overboard sometimes.  I thought my parents went on too much and I still do!  I'm 25 now with two children of my own and I still feel like a kid, lol.  Maybe they feel the need to be repetitive to get their point across. Hang in there and remember, you'll be an adult before you know it and wishing you were a kid again.  Just remember, they want only great things for you...

Your parents and close friends.  How your mother/father sees themselves.  Its all learning by example.

OH YES. When I was dating my wife, she was living with her parents. I was there one night and her parents were in bed. We started in on the couch, and her mom walks in!

You really hit the nail on the head with that one. I have more love and respect for my parents now that I have kids of my own. I understand more about them. They were never trying to ruin my life they were trying to keep me from ruining it. Just wish I would've listened more to them growing up. I would be so smart now. You never understand anyone's point of view until you're in their situation. My kids think I'm the meanest mama ever. If they only knew how good they really have it.

Depends on the parent and the child.  I would say that parents have usually lived more years than their kids, so the possibility that they may have learned more does exist - whether they have availed themselves of that possibility is another issue altogether.

many kids feel that their parent care less for them than their friends,that's how some kids get mixed up in gangs and cults.believe me no people are gonna love you like your mom who cared for you since conception.their are exceptions,rare though.we may not always understand why our parent is the way they are,but usually in time the child comes to realize that parents only want their kids to live better than they did.

I really believe it does, My mums life and mine are so similar. Both had 3 boys and 2 girls, same likes and dislikes. We are the best of friends. More like sisters just a couple of decades apart..\nMy Dad, I am sure we would have been very close if he did'nt pass away when I was young..\nI really think if your parents are good role models, you are really blessed with your path in life..

My dad is the best, because he is not my biological dad.  He came into my life when i was 13 and was willing to deal with me acting like a complete teenage beast.  He has always supported every decision i have ever made.  He has been more of a dad to me than my bio. dad ever was. \nHe will be walking me down the aisle this November and i am proud to call him my dad

I completely agree.\n\nFirst of all, do parents sit down and actually talk with their children?  When their child has a different opinion from their own, do they discuss it?  \n\nWhen I was kid and had an issue with someone (or something) my parents would ask me why I felt the way I did, what were the motivating factors behind my feelings?  They then would challenge me to put myself in the other persons shoes, to come up with possible reasons why the other person would act the way they do.  I learned very young that it takes all kinds of opinions, and that every one of those opinions is absolutely, 100% correct, at least for that person.\n\nPeople just don't listen anymore.  They aren't willing to take a step back and entertain the idea that they may actually be wrong...or at the very least, that there are other ways to view things.\n\nI, for one, am a talker....I talk to my kids.  They know they are free to feel the way they do but they must learn to give others that same courtesy, respectfully.

Whenever I can't figure out what to get my father I ask my mom!  She lives with him and knows him best.  She's always full of helpful hints about what he's been eying in the stores or taling about or that sort of thing.  If your dad doesn't have a significant other around try to contact a good friend of his and see if they've got any ideas to help!

ohhhh a romeo and juliet.... wat i think is that parents like special talents from a kid. u could try telling the person u love him try dating a couple times and get to know him. if u know the piano or any classical instruments they may like u!
