"Parents, teachers, and other school staff need the tools to help these young people early in their lives. And the earlier, the better. It is proven that early action prevents problems later in life."

"My parents taught me many of the things that people need in life to feel confident: practical things, such as managing finances, mucking out the goat barn, cleaning a house, doing repairs, mending a broken roof or a toilet."

"My parents have been together since they were 16 years old."

"My parents gave me a strict upbringing, which at times has caused me to suffer distress but today I am grateful to them for it."

"We're always worried that the parents are going to be shocked."

"We never know the love of a parent till we become parents ourselves."

"We never know the love of our parents for us till we have become parents."

"You cannot let your parents anywhere near your real humiliations."

My parents have been married forty-two years. I wonder how many of those were happy.

A parent can seem very kind and gentle, but as any child knows, as soon as that parent gets stressed, they can suddenly turn and get a bit angry.

I think parenthood is a wonderful balancing act. On the one hand, you want to spend as much time with your children as possible. On the other hand, you want to set an example for them to see that you're fulfilled in your life and in your work.

“Hypocrite: The man who murdered his parents, and then pleaded for mercy on the grounds that he was an orphan.”

“How many times have your parents told you not to do things, and the next thing you know, you go do it? And you realized you shouldn’t have done it.”

“Let parents then bequeath to their children not riches but the spirit of reverence.” 

When I was kidnapped as a child my parents sent a letter to the hijackers me Pay 5,000 dollars or your back

I could tell that my parents hated me. My bath toys were a toaster and a radio.

When I was a kid my parents moved a lot, but I always found them.

When I first saw a picture of the crucifixion, I lost respect for my parents. I suddenly realised that this is what the adult world is like - full of cruelty and hypocrisy.

Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world
