Why is it valuable to have one person such as the president with veto power? How is this similar to the relationship between parents and children?

Answer:

If a person with veto power can reasonably make a judgement that he or she deems better than a similar Congressional vote, then that veto power can be used for the better. This means that if a veto is used, then a bad decision could be made right. In a relationship between parents and children, the parents technically have a veto power. If the child chooses to make a bad decision, or is about to, the parents have the power to tell the child what to do instead of letting them choose themselves. In that sense, a President's veto power and a parent's veto power are the same thing.
