This is one question that makes us fight so hard to be around our friends.
Have you ever wondered why your parents always find that you are not putting in enough effort?
Because "are you proud to have me as your child" is the one question some of us never have the need to ask.
We know that no matter how much a failure we are, our parents will always be proud over the slightest achievements we accomplish and that is why we always take them for granted.
And it is also the reason why they always fall so hard and feel so sad when you fail the smallest request they ask from us.
The higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment they say;
I guess this is one case that never fits the bill.

We always go to our parents when we are hurt, as though they are superhuman;
truth is, there are times when they are weak and need your time for a heart-to-heart session.
Spare 15 minutes out of the 8 hours you spend with your friends to listen to the ones that love you most.
You may not feel it because you think that there's still time for that in the future when you grow up.
Wrong, because it's not you that's growing up;
it's them that's growing old.
