To me a good parent is someone who is always there to support there children in both good and bad terms, and a responsible adult that can supply for their kids necessities,

MY DATE WITH GRAYBEARD by ROBIN COLLINS When I was a boy in Natal, South Africa, the farmers of the district organised a hunt each year in the Umzimkulu valley, using a hundred native beaters and their dogs. A variety of wildlife finds refuge in the valley—monkeys, baboons and an occasional leopard—but the creature most sought after is the wily gray bushbuck. With his speed and cunning, his ferocity when wounded or cornered, he is a quarry worthy of any hunter’s gun. There was one buck

connecting hope passed from generation to generation. (Tan 41) The mothers are essentially afraid that they will lose their daughters to “foreigners” as they once lost their hopes and dreams in a place they once knew as China. June Woo is expressing the doubt the circle of mothers feel about their children. The mothers who immigrated to America from China still want to raise them the “Chinese way” not losing their culture.

Christopher Orobinsky The quote "Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." In my opinion this quote is true because you do need experience to do or know something. Although reading can give you a lot of knowledge it’s not enough for you in the real world.

The Changing of American Families Television reflects how American families are viewed. Leave it to Beaver and The Brady Bunch were the ideal families in the 1960's and 1970's, and in the 80's, it was Family Ties.
