Are Parents Always Right? And we as the children are wrong?
-
Is it true that parents are always right and children are always wrong? When they are in the mist of quarreling, who is always right and who is always wrong?

smtimes adults do know things better.
key is, dun quarrel with your parents, you'll hurt them. -
Times have changed...
Parents sometimes are dead wrong.. and if they hold on to the nonsense of "because I am your elder, I am right", it will always lead to disaster.
Look at our nation's lea-duhs. They play "parents" and we, the citizens, those who they are supposed to serve, are treated as little children who can never know better than them.
The result is a nation full of people who will just follow.. resigned to just following orders else they will be punished.
In a family, if the child is not heard, and reasoned with, and forced to follow the words of the parents without question, the child will grow up unable to think for himself if the child does not have a strong inborn character. Anything spirit in the child would be broken and the rebuilding may take a lifetime.. some never repair the damage. They will never be able to stand up for anything that is right, even if in their hearts, they know they are right.. they would just surrender.
That, would be a total failure of a parent.Originally posted by foga:smtimes adults do know things better.

That simply means that parents are always correct. In the end, they are right.

their thinkings are sometimes very out of date.. but we as children have to accept it.

because they have MONEY
and the person with the MONEY is always right. -
Cannot totally agree. Because they got a house. If you make them angry, they tell you to go out. Then you lose.Originally posted by AzRaeL:because they have MONEY

Applies to all older people. Hate those who dun argue with logic and knowledge, and they always say "I eat salt more than u eat rice!" They think they know everything.
And yes, those with money always win.
When you make a decision, as long as nothing go wrong, even if you made the wrong decision, you are ok; once you made a decision that is good, but turns out wrong, you will be blamed by everyone, who now, suddenly becomes an expert. -
