They weren't people that liked change. They were the kind of people that would have tied change to a chair with dental floss if they could in order to avoid it. They were the type of people who desired to live in their virtual bubbles and grew to resent anyone that challenged that world. Anna M. Aquino
About This Quote

In the relationship between a parent and a child, it is important for the parent to be a constant in the child's life. They shouldn't expect to be able to change their child. A parent shouldn't try to force their child into a different lifestyle that may not be right for them. However, a parent shouldn't try to prevent his or her child from making changes in their life either.

There are times when it may make sense for a child to make changes in their life, especially if it means they can live a better life. Parents shouldn't stop children from making changes in their life. They should instead give advice and help if they can through guidance and encouragement.
