What makes your parents AWESOME! Explain.


48 comments:

  1. My dad is awesome because he is absolutely hilarious and he makes me laugh everyday even when I’m in the worst of moods. We actually do have a lot in common, so that makes things very interesting. He always tells me that he knows me better than I know myself which sucks because he knows how I think and my every move. My mom Is also awesome because she helps me if I need any help with homework and she also cooks amazing Italian food, which in my mind is the most important part of it all.

  2. My parents are the AWSOMEST PARENTS EVER! They embarrass me, insult me, and beat me! But luckily not as bad as other parents, I'm only beaten twice a day with a belt. Just kidding! My parents are actually pretty good.... We have a lot in common and we share a lot of laughs together. We help each other out and spent a lot of time together... Sometimes too much time. But there moments I'll never forget. I love skiing with my dad and watching TV with my mom.

  3. While I admire many awesome qualities about my parents, the most awesome to me is the fact that they’re my safe landing. No matter what happens in the day, I know my parents will be there to support me and will always be there to talk. Everyone needs this kind of relationship in my opinion and I’m so fortunate to have it with my parents. When I get home from a rough day, my parents are always immediately there to cheer me up and I feel like I can just be myself and not have to worry about anything. I know they’ll love me no matter what and that’s just such a nice feeling to have. I may not agree with everything they say or do, but I’m certain about the fact that they will always be there for me when I need them to be, and that’s what makes my parents awesome.

  4. What makes my parents awesome? Well for starters they buy me nice things. But seriously, my mom and dad are super nice and they really care about my sister and I. I find that they are both very awesome but in their own ways. So first my dad: he is the easiest going of the two and he will let me do pretty much whatever I want, (within reason). My dad is a lot less social than my mom and he tends to spend a lot of time taking naps. He is an avid photographer and he made the web site for my soccer team, posting all of these pictures that he took of us playing over the summer. Also, he gives good advice and he really understands. Now my mom, she is very social (compared to my dad) and she is my shopping partner. Even though sometimes she picks out some really bad clothes she is still fun to shop with. My mom is also awesome because she is a great baker and cook; I really love eating whatever she makes. She is really nice to everyone and especially my friends when they come over. Overall my parents are awesome just, for being them!

  5. Plenty of things make my parents awesome; they feed me, buy me stuff, listen to me and love me, what more could you ask for? Although, there is one particular thing that they do for me that really stands out. The other day, I was telling my dad about Christmas at St. Thomas and how I love to decorate my locker. I had mentioned that a kid in my hallway had Christmas lights in his locker and that I thought it was really cool. A few days after that, much to my surprise, he had bought me lights with a battery so that I too could show off my Christmas pride! It meant a lot that my dad picked up on the little things that would make me happy. To me, that is what makes my parents awesome, the fact that they think of me and what would make me happy and that they went out and got me something that was small but really meant a lot, means a lot to me!

    1. That's so cool! And I totally agree with you; how it's awesome that we have two special people that love us no matter what, and give us food and shelter.

    2. That is so sweet!!! You are so lucky to have amazing parents that care so much about you!!!

  6. My parents are both really sweet and care a lot of my sister and I. They will always go out of their ways to put a smile on our faces! Whenever i am sad my dad always tries to make jokes to make me happy. They are both pretty easy going although they each have their times where one is more than the other. I am so thankful for them and couldn't ask for better parents.

  7. I'm being honest, sometimes I can't stand my parents. They always get on my nerves, and are constantly reminding me and asking me about my homework. They always make the smallest things I do wrong into huge problems, and you can't even imagine how they react to huge problems; it's not a pretty sight. I find them really overprotective also compared to most parents which really annoys me. But in the end, are they really trying to get on my nerves on purpous? Or are they just looking out for me. Without them looking over my shoulder, I would have no sense of direction in school, and I'd probably get in huge trouble out of school without boundaries. They've set rules for reasons, and in the end, I am almost glad. They are only trying to protect me from what's out there, and making sure I make the right decisions. Us kids, think we can do things on our own, and love being independent. But we are all just very naïve, and don't realise how lucky we are. Our parents keep us on the ground, and I admire them for this.

  8. My parents are pretty awesome not gonna lie… The one thing I love about my parents is how affectionate they are towards me and my siblings. Also they are super laid back which I great also.
    At times one parent is more laid back than the other but what’s great about them being laid back is I get to do a lot of stuff like hang out with my friends. My dad is a lil cutie even though he is not really that small :’) He is always trying to crack jokes on me and always acts “cool” because he wants to fit in with my generation. He always jokes around about school dances and school activities but when it’s time to be serious he’s really inspiring. My dad is the kind of person I can watch sports with and talk about “manly’ things and is always there to help me. My mom LOVES to shop so I can talk to her about clothes and makeup and those kinds of girly things. She is usually the more serious one out of the two but she can be super laid back as well. I feel like I can always talk to her about stuff and she is a good listener and advice giver. The funny thing is if I want to do something like go out I have to ask my mom first because she is the planner of the family but I love them both to death even though sometimes they are crazy and embarrassing but I am so thank full for them both and I couldn't ask for any ‘cooler’ and ‘awesome’ parents.

  9. Honestly my parents are pretty good at what they do. They know how to take care of me and my sister, and I don't know how but they always seem to know exactly what to say. What makes my parents so awesome is that there really laid back when it comes to me wanting things. I don't always ask for much but when I do, they usually come through for me. They let me go just about anywhere I want if they have the time and if I need money they'll usually give me even a little bit of money. I guess it's because my parents trust me. That's probably part of the reason they are so laid back. My parents are strong believers in trust, and as long as I don't break it, we have a pretty close relationship. I love my parents and I couldn't live without them. They hold me up.

  10. What makes my parents awesome is how much they care about my siblings and I. They want us to really succeed in life and have fun with it. I love how I can tell them anything, no matter how bad it is, I can really trust them to help me through whatever I am going through. I love how my parents are laid back about most things but when it's time to be serious, they are. I also love how much they care about our school grades. They want us to succeed and do well in school, but when I get a bad mark they are very understanding. They will never get mad at me for doing poorly on a test, they want the effort to be shown. I do have a unique relationship with both of my parents individually. My mom, I can tell her anything. Recently we have gotten closer and feel that I can trust her with everything. My dad is a jokester, he's always joking around and having fun. If I'm sad, he brings up my spirits and lightens the mood. I love both of my parents and don't know what I would do without them.

  11. I love my parents so much because they are awesome and I know that they love me too. There are so many reasons why my parents are the best parents ever. They never get mad at me when I do badly in something. They always ask me if I know what I did wrong and to do better next time but they never get mad and yell. They encourage me in so many ways and it shows how much they care about me. I can also tell them anything. Whenever something bothers me in school or anywhere I can tell them how I feel. I can always ask my mom for advice and she helps me and tells me what I should do. When I’m sad my dad always has something really weird or funny to say to cheer me up. I love how much fun and laid back my parents are because it makes me feel very happy and comfortable around them.

  12. I think my parents are super awesome because they never complain when they have to drive me somewhere. I am an extremely busy person therefore my parents need to drive me around A LOT. They also make me supper everyday. And food equals life. They are also awesome because they are strict but not mean. This helps me stay motivated in school but I am never stressed about them being super mad because I know I will just get a punishment. That is why MY parents are awesome.

  13. My parents are both equally awesome, but in different ways. My mom is awesome because she works really hard to make my sister and I happy, she helps us with whatever and is always there for us. Whether were really stressed, mad, or sad, my mom is the person to go talk to. My dad is always trying to make me laugh and it always works, he is super friendly and fun as well as strict and stubborn. Together they motivate me for school and sports and are truly awesome parents.

  14. I honestly love my parents!!!!! Everyone thinks when you are a teenager you are suppose to hate your parents but I can't because they are so awesome. My parents are the best in the world because they always do little things to make me happy and they always remember the little things that make me happy. They don't always remember my name or what my favorite things are but they always remember my favorite cereal, my favorite chocolate bar and my favorite sports. My parents are so awesome because they are still in love. A lot of people I know, their parents are divorced and that would really suck so I am so grateful and happy my parents love each other. My parents are always so busy with my siblings and I but they always find a time for me, alone. I'm always happy to come home after a long day to my loving supportive parents. There are many reasons why my parents are awesome but I could never be able to name them all in one blog. Those are just some of the reasons why my parents are AWESOME!!!!!!!

  15. My parents are awesome because they brought me into this world. They give me a roof over my head and food on my plate every day. Besides the obvious, they support me in anything decision I make accept when they know it's a bad one and they care and love me. I love them to death because they do so much for me and sometimes I don't realize it. But I'm so grateful for my parents even though they piss me off sometimes..

  16. My parents are awesome. Besides taking care of me, they always support me. They always try to cheer me up when i'm upset about something. They know how to make me laugh, and they know how to get me really annoyed and upset. I think that when they annoy me or nag me about something, it's for the best. I know they they love me and they just want the best for me but sometimes it goes over the limit. Another favorite reason why my parents are awesome (I said it before) are because they're so funny. They have so many good and funny stories to tell me to make me die of laughter. I love laughing and they know exactly how to make me do that.

  17. Why my Dad is awesome. My dad is awesome because he is always there when I need help (most of the time), for example when I'm trying to pump up a tire on one of my bikes he just says it's in the garage, but its pretty obvious that I already looked there since its something that's always there, then he just walks in and finds the right type of pump that I need for the tire. Another thing that's awesome about him is that he always supports me with everything, like sports. For example my dad use to be a professional mountain bike racer, and has worked with bikes for practically ever. So, whenever I need one of my bikes fixed he always helps, or if I don't need help because I know how to fix it, but I can't find the proper part, out of the whole entire storage facility in my garage, he would always find it and give it to me to fix. Another thing that makes him awesome is that he's always been an elite coach for Triple A Baseball teams, Cycling teams, Triathlon teams, and many more since he was about 21 years old, so its always nice to have someone there at your side throughout your life helping and teaching you how to do stuff, but also gives you space if asked. That's why my dad is awesome (and not including the gross healthy Vegan food).

  18. my parents are awesome because they won't always get me what i want but when they do its something ill keep for a while because ill know i love it, like recently my mom helped me redo my room and make it inn the basement and its with new furniture and a different colour of paint and it looks amazing i don't think ill get bored of it ever and that was the first time id ever gotten new furniture but i know she won't regret buying them. Also she's letting me go and paying for the Europe trip and i think that it is a lot of money and I'm so happy she wants me to go i think that makes my mom awesome.

  19. To tell the truth, my parents are pretty cool. Although they annoy me at times, they’re pretty darn good at what they do. One of the best things about them is that they are always there for my brother and I. When I was in grade 5, we were maybe going to move to China because my dad had gotten a job offer! I was super upset and so was my brother, and when my parents went to visit to see if it was a good idea, they really took our feelings into consideration. Also they know how to have fun. We make fun of each other all the time, yet we never get truly upset about it. Meaning they know how to take a joke. They always know what the right thing to do is, and I hope that if I ever have kids, I will be as great as them.

  20. I think what makes my mom so awesome is that she is a principal of a school. Most people think that this may not be awesome but it is. The best part about her being a principal is that, I can go to her school pretty much whenever I want, I can play in her gym, even do my homework in her office or play pingpong in the student lounge. The second reason she is so awesome is, she will pretty much do whatever she can to make me happy.If I am feeling sad she will try to cheer me up, if I am bored she will try to find something for me to do and if I ever need her help she will be there to help me.

  21. Although my parents can be annoying, they are still pretty awesome. They will do anything to make me happy. For example, almost every year we go to Florida and Disney or Universal just to make my brothers and I happy. Also, when my brothers or I want something, my parents will get it for us. They are pretty laid back unless I do something bad. If I do terrible on a test, they usually don’t get mad because they knew I studied and tried my best. Overall, they’re always there for me whether I want them there or not! But seriously, I love my parents and they are just awesome.

  22. The thing that makes my parents the best in the world is the fact that they are the epitome of cool. In high school my Dad was a jock, a musician and a skater. He was playing top-level baseball in his time, was skating with the best of the best and jamming everyday on the drums. To this day he still skates and drum, and he was also sponsored by the store Golden Sport for cycling. My Mom was the coolest in high school. She was the captain of the cheerleading team and even had a fan club for her (she did not make this fan club). Today my Mom is a preschool teacher at Beaurepaire Preschool and teaches the young minds of tomorrow. I hope this proves that my parents are the best.

  23. There are many things that make my parents awesome. For my father it is his fun, talkative and hilarious personality that makes you want to laugh with him even if you don't get the joke. Also, my dad is awesome because he is a really good cook, well the main one of my family, that takes into account all of my mother and I's food tastes which is great. Reasons for why my mother is awesome is that she is really nice and talkative, but she is still very strict and professional when it comes to work, school, etc. Another reason is that my mom is really fun to go out with, as in shopping, because she will help you find things in the store yet still be very economically conscious while doing so.

  24. There are so many things that i admire about my parents its hard to chose the one that truly make them awesome. I have learnt so much from them throughout the years. For example my dad taught me how to play the piano and how to ride a book, and my mom taught me how to bake and do art. I also have been so influenced by both of them, my fashion sense comes from my mom and my music taste comes from my dad. My parents will go to such extreme lengths sometimes just to make my sisters and i are happy, which is something i truly love about them. They also do little things all the time like driving me to and from my friends' house, which i really appreaciate. Finally, i love that my parents are so different and each have so much to offer.

  25. My parents are awesome for many reasons. One of the main reasons is because they are very supportive. They support me when I play soccer as well as in school. They support me in school because if I do poorly on a test, they won't be disappointed and will say that they know I can do better. They also support me in soccer because when I was cut from my soccer team that I played with for three years, they cheered me up and told me all the positive things about changing teams. They are also awesome because they are easy to talk to. I feel comfortable telling them anything. Another reason why my parents are awesome is because they care for me and make sure I'm healthy. When I'm sick, they do everything to make me feel better. For these reasons, my parents are definitely awesome.

  26. There are so many things I can say about my parents but what I believe makes my parents cool is that they cook me food, drive me places, keep me alive and they are really nice. Also they are really supportive about everything I do and they will go to extreme lengths to make sure I do what I want to do. All these reasons describe why I believe my parents are awesome. - Dennis Mayuga
