Respect for fathers and mothers is a common tenet of most cultures. With the advent of modern psychology, we now question this idea. If our problems are the result of the way we were raised, why should we respect them? When we respect our parents we are acknowledging that we do not know the challenges that our parents face. We recognize that our parents had to overcome their own childhood issues as well. Respecting our parents is the path to beginning to respect ourselves and ultimately respecting the cycle of life.

I'm sorry you missed the day I came home.
I'm sorry you left my Mum all alone.
I'm sorry you missed the first time I walked.

Dad I miss you
You don't know what I've been through
Not being raised with a Dad
You've made me always be mad...
I totally get what you are going through. My mom died when I was born, and the only person I had was my dad, but he left on my 3rd birthday. Then when I turned 13 I got the news that he died,...

You protected me from any kind of harm,

When the King left his castle,
The Queen became distressed.
The Prince went into hiding,
And the Princess became depressed.
Better than Santa
Kind of like God
My dad is the best
The best of them all...
My Dad was the best. I'm not sure if I hate him or I don't care about him anymore. I don't feel the warmth and happiness when he's in the house. Sometimes, I want to cry but my eyes don't...
He is not the kind of hero who is fighting in the war.
He is not one who sails offshore.
I don't call him Sergeant, Captain, or Sir.
