parents as role models!!!!

Yes, I also believe that parents are the natural role models for children. Children always look up to their parents and want to be like them. But many parents do not realize this and create bad examples before their children. Increasing violence in society can be contained if parents create good examples from their behaviour before their children.

Hi, i think parents are the only role models in our lives and we in turn have to live up to our kids and be their role models as well. What the kids learn from actors and other people around, is just for a small time, till those people are on the top or when they do or particiapte in good things, but they also play many roles in their moves, negative ones also, and kids may follow suit and do things they are not supposed to do as well. But parents will always love, care, guide and love you for what you are, and they will always try their level best to do the best thats for you, so we as parents have to try to be and play up their expectations as kids also look upto parents and us for answers, for solving their problems , for help, guidance etc, and we do all these things for them, and somewhere down the line, we are helping them out and in their minds we do make an impact, though the kids may not admit to it, but this feeling of looking upto their own parents, the feeling that my father or mothers the best, stays on i think. At least for me it always stays and there are no one like my parents,and now that i am a mother, i try to be like my mother, i try to be like her, think what and how she would have solved a particular problem or how best she would have handlled a situation etc, as shes been my role model and i hope and pray that one day i can be the same for my own kids too.

One small problem. My parents had children, I don't want children.My parents were married, I am never marrying anyone.They were good people but I would be miserable trying to following in their footsteps.Role models are the people you look up to and you get to choose.

i agree that parents are role models as these are the people we look up to when we are younger and we learn from them

That is true, It is said that one mother is worth ten teachers, they teach us when we are in very impressionable age, and we learn more by watching their behavior than by what they say.

Parents are role models to their children. So whatever you are as aparent, most likely your children will be. Your influence to your children is so great that they imitate you. So most of the times, when our children went wrong, they are always questioning what kind of parent you are.

Parents should be good role models for their children, but a lot of the time, they are not.

I think parents are role models because we have to follow in their footsteps as they are more experienced than we are; they love us and wont lead us astray.

i think that parents are also like us,like any ordenary people who have much experience. and it should be a role model. but it doesnt mean that they should be perfect too.my mom is nice and great but she is not perfect.i learn something from her and she learm something from me too.all i can say that she is my besfriend.
