Answer 1

Parents have a great influence over their children. They endure a great deal of hardships to bring their children up. Therefore, the children should love them and serve them. But sometimes they use this influence mistakenly, when they try to impose their likes or dislikes on their children. They wish to decide the career of their children. Such decisions sometimes have negative implications. For instance, the grown up children lose their self-confidence. As a result, they depend more and more on parents instead of consulting the right person for right time. In short, they lack decision power. It can be said, love your parents but develop your own critical look.
