"The debt of gratitude we owe our mother and father goes forward, not backward. What we owe our parents is the bill presented to us by our children"
- Nancy Friday
About this Quote
This quote by Nancy Friday speaks with the concept that the financial obligation of appreciation we owe our moms and dads is continuous. We can never totally repay our moms and dads for all that they have done for us, however we can pass on the very same kindness and love to our own children. Our children are the expense provided to us by our parents, and it is our responsibility to guarantee that we raise them with the same care and compassion that our moms and dads showed us. We should aim to be the very best parents we can be, so that our children can grow up to be kind, caring, and successful grownups. In this method, we can make sure that the debt of thankfulness we owe our parents is handed down to the next generation.
