Parents

Parents are the biological or adoptive parents of a child. They are the primary caregivers and protectors of a child, and are responsible for providing for the child’s physical, emotional, and social needs. Parents play a crucial role in the development of a child, and their influence can shape the child’s values, beliefs, and behavior. Parents can also provide support, guidance, and encouragement to their children as they grow and face challenges. The relationship between parents and children can vary depending on the culture, family dynamics, and individual personalities.
