Parents provide their children with the first expression of love and a sense of stability. Parents and grandparents, parents, and grandparents, all set a foundation for leading and teaching children to be responsible. Each parent provides a method of communication and a way of making decisions and correcting mistakes.
A parent's involvement in the neighborhood is also vital..
Respect for Parents Day was established in an attempt to "make our families more united and prosperous by acknowledging the leadership positions parents play and restoring the reverence for parents that was absent in the past." These are the words of Marilyn Dalrymple of Lancaster, CA, as she created the day, which is observed on August 1st. These are the words she used.
