Thank God, I blessing with both loving parents. They both equally love me and both done their responsible in brought me up. To both of them, I love them back equally, but when ask who do I more closer to, I would say I'm more prefer to my Mummy a little more. Most the time when I faced difficulty, when I need help on problem, advice, guide I will turn to my mum first. Maybe me and my mum both are female we share lots of the common, like shopping, heart to heart talk, cooking, beauty and etc, that why it is more naturally I'm prefer my mum more to dad. I remembered once my mum asked me this very sensitive question (not sure if she did asked my brother) - What IF, (if only ya) mum and dad divorce or separated, who do I want to follow and live with? I choose my mum. I do need my dad too when comes to something technical like fixing the car or furniture, buying properties, invest and so on..we also love to joke and talk non-sense, sometimes in which, mum is not really good at that. We talked and shared everything under the sun, sometimes he really taught me lots of principle and truth. What about you?

Hi, you are absolutely right, without them we are not brought to this world. What I mean is like when have a happy moment, good news, when you need a shoulder to cry, need a hug or need some serious talk who do like prefer more to go first. Just like my small boy, he prefer to kiss me more than his dad, wants me to play and read to him, wants me to sleep with him and etc. Whereas, he goes to dad when he wants to go to playground, want to eat sweets and etc. Hope you get the meaning of my topic right.

Dear lemonjude, My dad was busy throughout his working life. Most of his time was working and gambling, so not much quality time with us. The only memory I had with him so far was he was nice to accompany me when I was practising my driving to school. He is now working part time and spend quality time with grandchildren. My mum is the one most supportive in everyways. Love her, the best of all

I am a daddy's girl. I'm the first child. My mom and I always fought. Everyone thinks it's because she and I are so much alike. Now that I am no longer living at home my relationship with my mom has gotten better but I'm still a daddy's girl.

I prefer my mom more. My dad don't care about me, only the stuff he buys. They are not used to America so as a result, I have to learn values, principle, and the truth about the real world myself.

I honestly have to say my dad. He has always been there ever since I was younger and he would always make sure that I am well taken cared of. Since I am the youngest and only girl, it made me more closer to my dad and my brothers instead of my mom. Back when I was younger, my mom would work the whole time and so I was stuck with the boys. In return I would always go with my dad if he needed somebody to go with him to the mall or buy something outside. My mom I would prefer her with regards to other important things such as opinion about work, money since she is good at that field. She gives good advices to her friends and sometimes I also admire her for that. But overall, it would be my dad that I would much prefer.

I love my mother and father equally. However I give the two of them each different kinds of love. I'm sure everyone here understands what I mean

This is a really tough question. Anyway, I would choose my papa. Why? I don't want him to be lonely. i know that my mama is tougher than my papa. But, never in my thoughts have I imagined the two getting separated. They have been separated physically since my papa is working overseas but I know they love each other so much and I really pray for our family always to be intact and safe.

Though I love both my parents I am closer to my Mom. Maybe because when I was growing up my mother was the one who was always there for me and I guess she was more the mentor to all her children.They married too young and my Mom was left at home taking care of us my Dad on the other hand was working all the time and was still too young and wanted to enjoy more on life, maybe he wasnt really ready yet to have a family and kids after kids too soon. But he eventually grasp the obligations of being a dad later in our lives.If they had separated then I would say I'll go without a doubt to my MOm.:)

Hi lemonjude, First off, I would like to say that I love my parents very much. I cannot choose one either. Both are equally important for me. But yes I am very close to my father. I share all my problems with him. As my mother is very sensitive in nature, we keep her out of problems. I try my best to share all the happy moments with her. But I need them both equally in my life. Aira

I prefer my mother, but I really don't have a choice. my mother and father legally separated and my father and me don't really have any of the same intrests so I maybe see him once every 3 or 4 months. The only thing I like when I do see him is that he always has the new release movies so I borrow them and half the time when I usually keep them because he either forgot I had them or bought new copies of them. my mother and me share some of the same ideals and intrests so I get along better with her. but I think thats how it is with most people I think its because mothers make sure they have some time to cuddle and talk to their kids when they're younger where as fathers often don't get to far into the childs life until after the child is older like 8-10 (I don't know why this is, but it is).

well my dad disowned me and my older sister when i was 8 because he got remarried, had a new child and said they were his future and we were his past. ive been with my mom forever and im 20 now, and she kinda drives me crazy. she does all this stuff for attention, and just aggrivates me so bad. i mean dont get me wrong i love my mom, but its always about her, and if someone in the family is so sick theyre dieing, she finds a way to turn it around to her. it gets really old after a while. so i think i prefer my mother and father in law. theyre both great, dont like drama, and are just some of the best people ever. they help me whenever i need it.

How could I even choose between a mother or a father? Even with my boy, I never ask him if he loves me or daddy more. Both play a different role in our lives and though I am closer to my Mom growing up, I am now close to my Dad. I love them both and I'll never want to have to choose either one. Without any of them, I wont be here today. Mother and Father is an item, never meant to be separated or to be put into sides. Love them equally and you'll lead a happy life.
