QUOTE ABOUT PARENTING

(School task)

Today I am going to write about a quote.  

“It kills you to see them grow up. 

But I guess it would kill you quicker if they didn’t”

-Barbara Kingsolver ( 1995- ) American writer. Animal Dreams

This quote is about parenting.

The quote is written from another perspective than the mother’s.

Parents feel like their not a part of their children’s life trough their teenage-years, and that they lose their bond with them.

It is hard to see them grow up, leave their homes and start a life on their own.

Nevertheless, the parents did the same thing. They grew up, moved to a new place and started a new life on their own. Eventually they got their own children. It is a circle. A circle of life that never ends.

The only thing you can be 100% certain about in life is the fact that you are going to die. You do not know when, or where, but it is going to happen.

Not only with you, but your kids too.  

Remember. It is better that they live and create a life on their own, than lay in a grave all alone.
