My Parents

by Idvan Sulaiman from Bandung


When I was 14 years old, i had an idea about my parents, they were very nice and I loved them, but I really didn't thnk that they knew a lot. I of course thought that I knew everything cause I visit school everyday. I never ask my parents questions about anything because I thought I knew much more than they did. I am sixteen years old now, without realizing that my mom and my father have learned a lot in just two years. They are changing even faster than I am. Knowing that my parents could answer everything I ask about, I was very surprised. I was ashamed at the same time in my heart for having under estimating them. I now respect them especially their opinions on different matters or subjects. It took two years of growing up for me to realize that my parents are the people that I can count on for answers about somethings that I want to know, especially about life from their point of view. Now, my parents are my heroes because they can give me answers, opinions on important and different matters.
