Who is your favorite parent as a child or up to now?

Maybe it's because mom are the ones who takes care of us more. I mean since birth, we are all nurtured by our moms and dad where only there to help out. Maybe this is why we feel we are comfortable in telling anything and everything with our mother. ^.^

In my case, neither my Mom or my Dad stayed home when I was a kid. They are both working, so I grew up taken care of by a nanny. But even so, I never felt neglected by my parents. Maybe it is a special God-given trait that females are more affectionate and emotionally open. =)

yes, I agree with you also, maybe it's also because daughters and mother share the same gender so they understand each other well. Although SOME boys are really affectionate towards their moms but as they grow up they tend to / or pretend to move away from staying close to their mom so that they won't be tagged as momma's boy. ^.^

I'm sorry to know that you're mom passed away. I know it hurts you so bad since you're super close with your mom. I'm also happy that you opened up with those people who loves you and all of you are doing great now! I'm inspired by what you've just shared. Oh, I can't imagine if I experience that one... I totally love my mom. and being so young and all. that would be a total heartache! but as most says, time heals all wounds. thanks syankee for sharing! ^.^

Hi fadolf! thank you for the response! ^.^ it's nice that you're close to both your parents. I am too, but only recently. The reason why its like is because my dad is always not around when I was growing up. he used to work abroad and would only come back every other 6 months - 1 year or so. Although, we tend to write all the time and both my mom and dad encourage me and my sibling to write to him all the time to tell him anything under the sun. BUt it's still different with my mom who was always there with us. I know it's unfair but as a kid you don't understand fair right? but As I grow up, I realize that they both has equal shares of responsibility to us, so shouldn't look at it like "oh my mom is always there for me so she's my fave!' I agree with you that this kind of thing is only temporary, that why my question was... as a child or up to now. ^.^

hi SincereEve! thanks for the response! lol, commonly girls are a lot closer to moms right? or even boys as a child... perhaps. As I observe boys (some of them) tends to move away to closeness when they grow up.. I don't know if this is because they are afraid of the term "mama's boy" or they seems to think that this is very unmanly. ^.^

it's nice that you view things this way... as you explained i still think that mom is your fave since you can open up to her like that. ^.^ but it's just me! ^.^ I agree that dads are always the adventure pro, I can still remember my dad just let me be when I tend to climb on tree before unlike my mom who would always shout around and tell me it's dangerous and I would have huge wounds when I fell down. ^.^ thanks for the response! ^.^

it's funny because the only main reason that moms are actually the most favorite one it because she is always around and dads use to work and would sometimes (most of family situations like mine) just go home after a year or so due to their jobs abroad. and just like you, I love my parents equally since maturity thought me that they are both doing the same share of responsibilities in the family. thank you for the response! ^.^
