Day 2
Today, I want you to think about the values your parent(s) have tried to instill in you. Then, comment on the value of being a parent. Why do people become parents and why do they value you as their child? As discussed last year in To Kill A Mockingbird, put yourself in their shoes for a moment and think of the triumphs and the frustrations of parenting and yet why becoming a parent is such a key value in our society.

I think people become parents for many reasons. First of all, i think people become parents to carry on the family legacy and name. Secondly, for some people it gives them something to look forward to in life. You as a parent, you would hopefully see your kid graduate high school and maybe even get married. Along with that, I think parents value me as a child because I'm not something you can just go buy at the store, it's something my mom and dad made themselves, and no one can ever change that. Also, my parents value me as a child because once they see me use the values that they have taught me, it makes them feel accomplished and proud. Overall, parenting can bring a lot of values to a person's life.

My parents try to instill in me many things. One thing they try to instill in me is to be a hard worker. If you don't work hard you wont get better and quick as if u did work hard. Another thing they try to teach me is patience. The saying "good things come to those who wait" involves patience. There are many values to being a parent. One value is to have your genes and family live long. In To Kill A Mockingbird one frustration was when gem destroyied the ladies flowers. Aticus was mad at gem because he thought he had taught gem to be better than that.

I think that what parents try to instill in you, is just things they want to teach you so that you will be even more successful in you life. People want to become parents for several different reasons. A lot of people want to have children so that they can guide them, teach them, and watch them grow. I think that when a parent has a successful child, they couldn't be more proud, because that is what they raised them for, to go up and be an importance to the world. I think that at times being a parent can be very frusterating, but at other times it can be very rewarding. I think they love to see one they love grow and become a great person of their own. That is what i think about parenting.
My parents have instilled many things onto me. One of those things would be to never give up on something you really want. If you work hard enough, eventually you will get what you wanted to achieve. I think people become parents to pass on the family traditions and the family name. Parents value us as children because we're the image that our teachers, friends, and elders get about them when they see us. My parents value me as a child because when I succeed at doing something they can feel like they helped out and did something good. Parenting is a key value in our society because it shows the younger kids how to act more mature and be more grown up.
I think most adults become parents for many reasons. First they want to start a family of their own and second to teach and fix things that their parents did that they didnt like. The things my parents try to instill in me is to make every day as happy as you can because you miss out on a lot if you're sad. Second is being a hard worker because if you don't work hard you will never achieve your goals. Third the value of a dollar they make sure i know that money doesnt buy happiness but i think it can buy you a lot of nice things which make you happy [: & fourth never give up on your dreams because you will never achieve if you pull yourself out of the game. This is the end of my blog.
I think the values my parents tryied to instill me were always be kind to others. i think people become parents because they want to give back to the world for what the had recived. or they try to be parents so that way there family name is gone forever. i think some of the triumpths of being a parent would be knowing that eventually youll be sending another adult into the world. also i think that they love to teach people some thing that can not be ever learned in school. the diadvantages of being a parent would be having to deal with someone elses problem as well as your own.
The biggest things my parents have try to instill in me are having respect for people. The other is I have to work hard to get the things I want. I think people become parents because they want the ability to teach a child and watch them grow up. That, and they want the family name to be carried on! My parents value me as their child because I am unique, no one can ever replace me, and I try my hardest to be the best I can be. When my parents see that I have used a value that they taught me, I know they feel proud.
Everyone would agree that their parents are strange, over-protective, and mean. Parents only do that stuff because they love you. Everyone wishes to become a parent at some point in their long life. Some parents let their kids do anything they want to do. That's not how it works. There should be rules and consequences. parenting is the best thing that could ever happen in someones' life.

There are many reasons why I believe people want to become parents. One reason is to install the knowledge their parents gave them to one of their own. Another reason is to share the love and to give their kids what they didn't have when they were growing up. I also believe some people want to face the challenge of passing on the knowledge they know to their own kids. Both of my parents try teaching me what they know and more. I know when they see I use the knowledge they taught me it makes them feel successful. My parents have brought me many values in life and I know I will pass them on to my kids.
Well first I would like to say that my parents have instilled some values such as take pride in your work and what you do every day and never quit always put forward the best efffort you possibly can. I think being a parent is a tough job having to take care of them when their your and watch over them as they grow up like I am now. People have a child because they want to give back of what their parents did for them. My parents had a'lot of issues with me and brother fighting a'lot from us just being little to currency (meaning now).One thing I have noticed expecially my brothers senior was that we didn't as much as we use to mmaybe it was because we matured or that we were both busy a'lot of the time.To be honest I don't know if I would ever what to be a parent because it such as pain and commitment that I don't know if that suitable for me but maybe all get married 20 years down the road after I have my life together. it's a part of society because to keep the human spices alive people get married first and then have a child or two. Concluding I would like to say that parenting is a very hard job and you have to put forward alot of effort and instill values in them overall.
My parents have alot to handle. They are my heros... thats for sure. I am such a busy person these days and they support me in each and every way. Both my parents have taught me many important lessons that i will remember until the day i die. I cherish the time I have with them because I know that our time is limited. No matter what happens, they still love me. I want to be just like my parents some day and I hope that everything I do makes them proud. Parents all around the world have different ways of raising their children. All parents should be open to learning and change when it comes to the way they raise their children.
The values that my parents have tried to teach me are lessons that they feel I will need in the future to succeed. They teach us things that involve respect, manners, family values and other important things. To be a parent is a very hard but rewarding job. I believe people become parents because they want something they can call their own and boss around all the time, but thats just an opinion. They value their child because they lived with it for nine months. It is their child, their own blood that they can watch grow and hopefully succeed and continue their generation. Any parent would love to see their child succeed but they don't always expect for the frustrations that can follow a child too, especially in the teenage stage. I personally don't understand how someone can willingly force themselves into that kind of labor and frustration. But, if we didn't have such willing parents, our society would not grow or flourish. We should all be grateful because we need them to teach us the values of life so we can have a better one.
People have children and become parents for many reasons. From wanting to have a cute little baby to having them so they can help you work in the field. But i think the main reason people have baby's is so they can have the pleasure seeing what they made grow do great with the life they gave them. the values that they teach there kids is to help them live good productive lives. For example my parents taut me manners so i can make friends and don't acsidently insult somebody. in To Kill a Mocking bird, Aticus did get frustrated with his children but at every incident Aticus guided them threw it and it got them more redy for the future by teaching them life lessons. This is how i feel about parenting
my parents try to instill goes things like any parent. the value of being a parent is knowing that if your kid turns out right then you know you as a parent have done your job. i think that when you become a parent you have bumped a level up in society because it lets people know that there matured adults. that is why i think parents try to instill values on kids
Parent care a lot about children and thats why they try to to install as many positive values as they can. Some of the values that my parents have tried to instill in me is always working 110% and never give up. One of the reasons my parents value me is because even if i dont succeed they know i always try my hardest and never give up. Sometimes kids can mess upand do things that they are not suppose to do and that where parents step in. Parents teach kids what they can and cant do so the kids know from right and wrong. Parents have kids to have fun and help the child succeed. This is why parents are a key role in society.
I think what parents instill in you is to be sucessful and grow up the best you can. They want you to make every oppertunity the best it can be. Many people would want to have children so they can raise them and watch them grow up as an individual. They want to see their children live a great life and be sucessful in all that they do. There are many times being a parent can be frustrating, especially when they get older and start having opions of their own. But I think that won't matter as much when you get to experience all the fun things being a parent has to offer.
Being a parent is a great responsibility. But i think people become parents because it is also very rewarding. They want to be able to experience watching a child grow up and raising it. They want to see there child be sucessful and accomplish their goals. Even though it can be rough raising a child, especially when they get older and have their own opions, it can be worth it to experience more good times with your kids. Kids are more good then bad. Overall, i think that being a parent can bring lots of values into a persons life.
