  • Essay / What do children owe their parents? - 1688

    Every child who has been placed on this earth was made by the choice of his parents, who were given the opportunity to procreate. As children grow up and become adults, their parents age and are unable to care for themselves.

As an adult, taking care of your parents should be a responsibility and a duty. “What grew... middle of paper......for my degree. prom and birthdays. In my heart I'm glad she created me because she could have aborted me. After all of this, I realize that my father was right about my mother.

I want his decision to affect him for the rest of his life. I can't be in her life if she doesn't want me in her life. Brother 6 Thanks to your parents' mistakes, you can be better parents to your children in the future. You can do this by being there for your child and making them responsible adults in the future.
