About This Quote

This is an important quote to use when talking to people about their parents. It is very common for children to become desensitized to the struggles of their parents, but this quote will help them see that the best way to honor their parents is to live up to the ideals that they thought they should be. Parents want their children to grow up and become better than them, not just because they want them to succeed, but because they want them to honor them.
