Some children act as if they thought their parents had nothing to do, but to see them established in the world and then quit it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Parents like the idea of kids, they just don't like their kids.
Children who cling to parents or who don't want to leave home are stunted in their emotional, psychological growth.
Ultimately, very few people parent their kids in ways that strike anybody else as reasoned, appropriate or sane.
All children are born pure egoists. They perceive their needs to the exclusion of all others. Only through socialization do they learn that some forms of gratification must be deferred and others denied.
Parents have no greater responsibility in this world than the bringing up of their children in the right way, and they will have no greater satisfaction as the years pass than to see those children grow in integrity and honesty and make something of their lives.
All parents all over the world want their children to lead a better life than themselves, but they need to believe that change is possible.
There are a lot of people who want to leave their children with a world that is in better shape.
Most parents' goal is to launch their children into the world with all the tools they need to make it on their own.
A kid never listens to what his parents tell him to do. The parents actually act as an example of what their kids themselves do.
My theory is children don't do what you tell them to do, they do what you do. You have to always do the right thing because they follow you.
