When we were kids

When you claiming you're getting older, think twice. What about your parents?

When we were kids, we used to beg our parents to let us have pet. But kids usually 3 minutes hot (change mind really fast). And end up, your parents are the one who take care of your pet. And you ignore your pet like you don't give a shit. You even feel it's so annoying.

And now, we grown up. If we have our pets on our own. You realize there are lots of work to do for a pet. You need to buy foods for them, feed them, bath them, play with them and talk to them. It's not a easy tasks. Imagine you have brought trouble for your parents when you want a pet before. They have you, and because of you, they have another pet to take care of.

When we were kids, parents don't let us to eat too much of snacks. They told us is bad for health. This and that. But we won't bother to care so much because it doesn't harm us.

And now, we grown up. We know eating too much of snacks is bad for health. And we are the one who need to stop them from eating something which is bad for their health. But this is different, they are getting older. They will easily fall sick if they ate the wrong things.

When we were kids, our parents always seem to be like heroes. They know everything, they taught us lots of things, they told us what to do and what not to. We learned a lot from them.

But now, we grow up. We are the one who taught them how to do this, how to do that. They seem weak and clueless for the technology nowadays. And sometime, we don't bother to spend time to teach them. We don't even teach them patiently and call them stupid. You wouldn't know how sad they are when you said that.

When we were kids, we feel that our parents look handsome and pretty.

But when we grown up, we saw them changing. Their hair turn white, hearing ability decrease, they can't see things well. But yet, we still laughing at them. We talk to them without patient when they can't hear properly and start screaming at them.

When we were kids, we used to play with them. Jogging, swimming, exercise and race with them. And we are the loser always.

But when we grown up, we realize they don't have the ability to race with you anymore. They turned tired really fast and you have pretend like you're loser and let them win.

When we were kids, we shits and pees like we don't give a shit. And yet, parents teach us patiently and change pants for us.

And when we grown up, and parents getting older. They might shits and pees everywhere. Be patient to them, don't feel shame and scold them in the public for making you shame. You wouldn't know how guilty they feel when that happens.

When we were kids, our parents scold us when we did wrong. But we used to scold back when we think we are right. You don't know how much you've hurt them.

And when you grow up, what you think you're right before is actually wrong. Totally wrong.

When we were kids, changing bulb, fix the sink, repair washing machine those kind of tasks are always parents' job. You don't know anything.

You grow up, you realize they don't have the ability to do that. And you should be the one to do it. Stop pretending like it's not your job. You're not a kid anymore.

When we were kids, we always wish to get the hell out of the house to stay away from them for being so annoying.

You grow up, you moved out, you're free from your annoying parents. But there will be one night, you cry because you miss how they used to be so annoying. Because they care.

When we were kids, everything seem so new for us. You want to try everything and how parents stop you and you fight with them.

And now, you grow up. You know smoke, taking drugs, alcohol, speeding are all stupid things you ever done. You fight with them because you think you should try all of it.

When we were kids, you call them stupid when they worried about you.

Now you grown up, you call yourself stupid because you made them worried. You wouldn't know how restless and anxious they could be when they know something happen to you.

Seriously, some parents are nightmare for some kids. But yet, they are the one who bring you to this world. Without them, I don't know where you could be now. Still a sperm?

Sometime we call it explain when they think is fight back. But, they always have their own reason. Be quiet and listen to what they say. You don't have to explain so much.

Please, be nice to them when you can still do it now. Because time never wait, we are growing up and they are getting older. We won't know what's gonna happen next.

Appreciate the time you with them ♥
