hi friends, all of us know about our parents and we know how they take pains to feed us ,they guide us and they work hard so as to make our lives better and better. They give up their desires for our future and always try to make us the better human beings.But in today's time most of the children,when they grow old, forget about the parents sacrifices for them and don,t even care about their parents.What do u think, has the world really changed and reached a time where parents mean nothing to a child, is everyone so busy that he doesn,t get time to even enquire about his parents,or is there any other reason u can see. If yes! then what? And how can we make the life of our parents better.

I have so many reasons why I probably shouldn't talk to my parents. I'll just say that my life should have been a lot better. It's really hard. Becasue I'm pregnant, and I think about how my life was when I was a kid. I think about it a lot, because I want to be the best mom possible for my daughter. Despite everything, I still talk to my parents. I still see them. If they should fall sick, ill, or need help, God forbid, I'll alwyas help. I don't agree with the way I was raised at all, and I left home as soon as I could. They're still my parents, and I still love and care about them.

We can't blame those children who is looking for the attention,love and care of their parents because sometimes they don't have enough time for their children that's why some children neglect their parents too but that is not right even though their parents does'nt have time for them they should understand it because they gave all of their needs in everything.Even they deny their parents still that is their parents.Sometimes the children neglects totally their parents and they does'nt give importance to them.that is not right,if they have problems with their parents let them know and talk to them for them to be informed and make solutions for it.For them to have a good relationship.Kindly remember all of the sacrifices that they've made for you to reach that level in life,without them we are not here too.So give importance with them and love them.Remember nobody is perfect,there should be a give and take relationship and learn to forgive others.

You true and we should help our parents as they did in the past.We will be in that stage where our parents are so we have to fulfil the cycle and do our work we donot make them irritate and make their dream come true. I think it bad to take the matter of the generation gap . we have to understand our parents and so our kids do understand us.
