ESSAY ON PARENTS
Parents are the most important part of a child’s life. Mother and father do everything for their children so that they can lead a good life with all the facilities. They feel for their children in happiness and sorrows. They support them in everything they do in life. Needless to say, parents show their children the right path to follow in life. Most of the time parents stand like pillars with their children. They protect them from getting harmed by others. But, there are also times when parents are strict and teach their children discipline so that they are well behaved. They inculcate moral values, honesty, integrity and kindness in children.
