Mother's and Dad's are equal?

Question

I hear all the time about we should always show our love to both, but then they say put your mother up front...always respect her...show her love,etc. That is all good, but how about dad? Sure your mother carried you for 9 mos, but if it wasn't for dad you wouldn't be here.I know mom changed, fed, cloth you. When I was coming up dad took me fishing, hunting, camping trips. Looks like dad is left out.

Feed back.

Answer 1

Dads and Moms are equally important, but dads are mostly around for the fun stuff unless you have a father who takes a serious part in discipline.  Moms do most of the child rearing because fathers are at work.  This is why they say put Mom first, because she has always put you first.  Dads have to work.  

Answer 2

Dad= able to kick your a--.  Love dad.  If yours is good, and still around, he's a winner as a human being.  Mom may have fed, clothed you and things like that, but who bought the food and clothes?  It's equal, but dads never get the love.  

Consult bill cosby's "Himself" special about dads.  In short, Dad teaches you to be tough, how to mack on ladies, to play football... you score the winning touch down (like dad taught you) and when the camera gets in your face "Hi mom!"  no good.

Answer 3

I appreciate my dad way more than my mom. He's the one who goes to work five days a week to support me. He's the one that pays the bills, buys the food, takes me shopping for clothes (even now that I can buy them myself). He's the one who makes sure I have money to pay for college and all my financial aid is in order. He's the who taught me that you are responsible for everything that happens to you in your life. He's the one that taught me to take responsibility for myself and my own actions.

On the other hand, what has my mother done for me (or the rest of my family) in the past 15 years?

Answer 4

Your mother and father are special to you no matter how you look at it. They brought you in this world so they should be equally loved. The mother's care for you for 9 months and then the first few years of more care when you're born is something special. That you shouldn't forget. That is a mother's way of spending each second of her time with you and you'll never understand that special feeling unless you have a child one day.

But overall, both should be loved equally.

Hope this helps :)
