A daughter is God’s sweetest gift and there is something special about the parent-child relationship. Your parents have been there for you, looking after all your needs so you should also make an effort to be a good daughter. Help your parents in doing things around the house like cooking washing and cleaning up. Always keep your room tidy. Listen to what they say as they have your best interest at heart. Be compassionate and understanding so that they may depend on you in a crisis. Look after them when they are tired or ill.
Visit them as often as you can and show them you care. Take out time to sit and talk to your parents and also take your children to meet them so that they may build a good relationship.
Offer to have family gatherings at your house. Parents often have all the traditional holiday celebrations at their home. Take the load off their shoulders and host the gatherings so that your parents can enjoy the festivities without having to do all the work.
Be the family negotiator and help stop the fights and disagreements, clear up all the misunderstandings. Families are made up of different people with different opinions but you can help keep everyone communicating, even though sometimes peer pressure is hard to bear. Whenever you do something wrong, apologise.
Wear simple clothes and light make-up as most parents do not want their daughters to attract too much attention. Do your best and work hard at school, in sports or other endeavours, to give them opportunities to be proud parents.
Talk to your parents if something is bothering you and stay calm. Enjoy the simple things with your parents like watching T.V., movies, eating dinner together and playing board games. Show affection and gratitude. Try not to be sarcastic even if they are being unreasonable. Show your love by hugging them and sometimes by just sending them a card. Love them for who they are and don’t judge them by their mistakes. Respect your parents and if something is upsetting you, do not take your anger out on them. Always be thankful to them and do good things to make them feel proud of you.
