May be Parents are not right always. But they know better than us, what being done wrong in the life from their wide life's experience which we don't have.

Most of the times, YES. When they say they have experienced similar things, listening to them is important. After all, they don't want us to repeat the mistakes they once would have done and learnt from. Sometimes, they let us fall once, only to help in an effective learning. But most of the times, they are shielding us from the vice. Because, they love us.

Dear Sameer, I do acept with Mr.Dhingra. It depend . In earlier days it was not like todays life so they are experienced persons of the past. But they dont the present things. So it is very difficult to say that they are always right. Now a days a small kid is exposed to the world, hence they also getting experiences. & Right & wrong depend upon experience in the life time....

Parents are usually right because they have gone through the same stream of life and they have experienced the facts,its not that we have to take their decision but its always good to consider their decision before anything

I agreed with Mr.Sameer's point. Parents are usually correct. They do know clearly what their children supposed to do and what suppose not to do. But it would not be applicable for all the parents unless they are good. We could say that parents are our role model. Our initial stage learning will starts from them even relatively permanent change would happen after initial stage.

Parents when they are matured,educated and responsible citizen or family oriented and with the enormous amount of experience in life, they may advise correctly to any issues that younger generation faces to day irrespective of the weight of the issues.Now a days younger generation are speed in any issues which may go wrong in result. At that times, it is better for young leaders to take the advise of elderly people. This is my view and this view is correct out of my experience.The time may be wrong but the advise of elderly people like parents may not be wrong forever.

YES.. Parents are always correct. At times, we feel that they are not and that is because we feel too mature and experienced. We actualize the fact only when we become parents. This will always remain vicious Circle. So , Everyone , Please Love your parents , Show them you respect and make them feel proud. Always respect their decision and have discussion forums rather than arguments with them I can bet one will never regret if rely on parents Decisions and you are never grown ups to ask for any help to decide any time in life.

Parents have the growth of the child as their vision and hence always hope to give correct advice to the child based on their experience and knowledge built over the years. However, it is possible that in some instances they may not always be having the knowledge of a particular situation to decide whether the decision to be taken is correct or not. This does not mean that they are not taking the right decision. What is right may be wrong at another point in time. Additionally, it is worse not to take any decision and it is better to take even a wrong decision which could be corrected later based on the situation in order to move forward in life. The key point is to observe that the parent always focuses on taking the appropriate decision for the child at that particular point in time based on the available information, personal environment and past knowledge. Hence, it would be more prudent to focus on the fact that parents always take appropriate decisions for the benefit of the child instead of focusing on the right or wrong decisions.... Thanks for the referral, Sameer....

Well not always right I'll say. Sometimes yes, they are right as they have experience. However, parents usually end up imposing their thoughts on their children which will deprive children from gaining any experience of the real world. No one learns to swim unless they enter water (the metaphor is for taking decisions ofcourse) and parents would not let children take risk as they might have experienced danger in their own life. Finally, children wont ever learn to swim and may fail while dealing with a grave situation when by themselves. Parents do care for their children which is really great and as discussed by Geno, they play an important role in imparting moral values. In rest of the cases though, todays parents need to be more flexible and let children learn and gain experience on their own.

I would say... Parents are ALWAYS RIGHT only when it comes to imparting moral values to the child. No parent would want their child get in to immoral stuff. But when there are choices (all good choices) parents can even go wrong in picking the right one (Finding a partner for the child's marriage for example). So parents can be right and not always. The only thing is parents can be made always right "If the child decides"

Sir, I agree that err is human, but once you become a good role model, the children will leave the bad things within yourself and when they are growing adolescence, they will know what is right and wrong.

I must say yes and no. I can classify six ways to parenting:1. Have an affectionate and affirming relationship.2. Be open communicators. 3. Communicate clearly and specifically about sex.4. Be a good role model.5. Stay tuned in to their world.6. Pray for your children and yourself. See from the above six Role Model plays a vital role in this segment. If as a parent, we should be a role model to our children, since they are mimic and worship most of the time as their heros. Most of the time our children should be watched without knowing them that we are watching. It is our responsibility to walk in the right way as a shepherd is watch on his flog.

It all depends upon the nature, character, educational, social, economic and mental condition of parents at a given point of time. Whatever parents do it will be in the best interest of their children . Some times they may go wrong because "to err is human".

Yes no one is doing correct in this world. Even a criminal or a robber will tell he is correct. As for as my point is concerned the following are very helpful to become a father or mother: 1. Have an affectionate and affirming relationship with your children. 2. Be open communicators with your children. 3. Communicate clearly and specifically about sex with your children.(when they become adolescence) 4. Be a good role model to your children. 5. Stay tuned in to their world. 6. Pray for your children, family and yourself. DO GOOD AND EXPECT GOOD FROM YOUR CHILDREN.

To err is human and parents are humans too...so therefore they may not be always right but usually right...But that does not mean not to listen to your parents...You anyway have to listen when you are a toddler but when you have crossed the period of maturity, listen to what best suits you...

Like Roger Moore says"Much can be said on both sides". But most of the times its the insecurity of the parents especially in the major chunk of the middle class population of India, that determines the decision making of the parents towards their children.Every decision they make depends on which aspect of the child and the perception of the parenta at that point of time. Sometimes what the parent could not achieve in life, they want to achieve such lost or unattempted goals through their children, Consequentially with the change of time, the interest levels of the child are undermined and sacrificed.What the parents could not achieve then, must have been pertinent then...but not today. It is this missing link of the thought process, which brings in conflicting situations in the minds of the child.Yes when it comes to imparting moral values parents can never be wrong. No parent wants his child to succumb to bad things in life. But it differs when it comes to complexed aspects like career and mental bridging of the child are concerned.
