Tonight, my parents were so sweet. Took my brother, sister, and I out to dinner to eat. But the three of us kiddos didn't like where they were going, so we split up for dinner for a little bit, then went grocery shopping together. ^_^
But the thing I most grateful for about my parents is my mom always reading to me when we were poor and lived in the ghetto. I remember she read to me even when I was incapable of reading... My first book was "Left Foot, Right Foot" by Dr. Seuss. I have ALWAYS been a huge reader since then, and I've almost always been the top of my English classes. My writing is much better than the level of most kids my age (thankfully) mostly because I was read to by my mom consistently every day. So, what have your parents done for you back in the day when you were a wee lad that has effected you even to today? |

My parents raised me not to be a f**king moron like the majority of the users on these forums. I thank them for that.

My parents told me from an early age to be weary of who I trust. Mom being a lawyer, I kept records of everything, including AIM conversations. Because of them, I don't let secrets that could hurt me slip. I'm grateful no one knows my facebook password. They could make my notes say some nasty things. And it's all because of them.

My father was holding me once... he slipped on the wet bathroom floor, and I cracked my head open on a faucet. I don't think I have ever been the same.

That reminds me... I accidentily jumped on my sister's head when she was young. I was maybe 3 years old. :T |

Well, lots of things. The way they brought me up so I'm like I am today, for one thing. Also, I'm glad dad read to me as a child. That got me interested in books. ^^ |

My morals, values, respect for myself and others. I'm not sure if that begins to cover it. She's always been there for me, from the little things like dealing with my learning disability to making major choices in my life. My mom and I are really close, and I'm thankful for that because it's kept me out of a lot of trouble.
She also covered for me when I got my truency tickets and my speeding ticket the other week. :) |
