As I have become a parent myself, I do want to know what makes one a good parent. However, in my opinion, there are no certain qualities of a good parent. It can only be determined by their child, and each child would want different things from their parent.
In my case, I have great parents. I respect both of my parents as a parent and as a person as both parents and as people.
They are always supportive and I have always known they are there for
me, although I do not usually ask them for any help or advice. They
have done many things for me; however, what I am thankful about them most for the most is not what they do as a parent as parents, but the fact they love each other very much. From an early age, to see them enjoying their lives together made me feel very secured secure. I could go and explore whatever I wanted, but I always had a place to return.
I
am not sure what I can or will do for my baby as a parent, but I think
keeping a good relationship with my husband is a good place to start.
People do many different things to stay healthy. What do you do to maintain your health?
Until recently I had believed that one could stay healthy unless he did
something unhealthy. This might have been true to some extent,
especially when you are young. However, I have started to realize that
being healthy requires a little more than that.
When I was young, I did not need to worry about my diet as long as I lived with my parents and ate my mother's meal meals.
I could do reasonable exercise just by going to school. I had to run up
stairs to catch a train and swim in a pool twice a week not for fun but
for a PE class. I thought people who needed to worry about health were
those who drank alcohol a lot, smoked a cigarette cigarettes a lot, and did not do any exercise.
However, when I got pregnant, I had to give more consideration to weather
whether I was leading a healthy life, not only for myself but also a baby
growing inside me. Just going to work does not provide enough exercise
any more. I do not drink alcohol nor smoke a cigarette cigarettes,
but junk foods are all around and hard to avoid. I love eating out to
save time and have relaxed time, but the meal at a restaurant is not as
healthy as the one you make. For the first time, I felt I needed to do
something to stay healthy.
My eating habit has been changed habits have changed a lot. The biggest reason is that with my little baby I cannot eat outside eat out
as often as I did and am forced to cook myself. A nutritionist told me
to eat fish everyday at one of the seminars for mothers-to-be. It is
hard for me to follow that, but I try to make fish dishes every two or
three days. I have not been able to spend a lot of time on exercise,
but as my baby grows up, I will be forced to move eventually.
