both

chichriso:

You can't say both because one must be more valuable than the other

Different people may have different opinions about it, but for me, it is undoubtedly the mother. But surely, everyone knows it has to be a united effort of both the parents to raise a family, but still there, the mother contributes more than the father. This bonding with the child is mostly due to the mother carrying the child in her womb for a good 9+ months, which attaches both of them emotionally.

A mother has an undetectable bond with her child, unlike many fathers. She always does her best, to make her family happy. Mothers always sacrifice a lot, for the happiness of her husband and children. She can have a job, and still take care of everything else, from cooking, looking after the children, maintaining the house. Fathers usually go to jobs, and return home for dinner, and that's usually the case in almost every family. Yes, fathers do care about their children, but cannot do many things, like the mother can to her child. When a child is emotionally hurt, or confused, it is the mother he goes to for answers, and to feel good about them. The mother also has a deep emotional attachment with her children, unlike the fathers. A child does need both the parents to grow up, at different stages of his life, but even in an unfortunate case of having a single parent; he/she would always prefer their mother over father.

So I come to a conclusion, that mothers are most definitely the more important figure in the raising of a family.

God bless the real Mothers.

Chidoks:


You are right about the mother thing.mothers often make huge sacrifices to keep hone going.these days they contribute mre than fathers however there is this confidence and security that the prescence of a father gives in a home.When you have a father, you feel secured, both mother and children have a pillar, a haven, someone to
lean on.the defender, theirprotection and security,the decision maker.a chest to lean and rest on when the challenges of life come plaguing...
Both parents are extremely important and necessary in breeding good, balanced and confident children.

both are equally important and none is more important.
Reason: In the first place, most parents complement each other.they blend to make a home.they make a team and the qualities lacking in a man is often found in his wife vice versa.
Now in bringing up a child this same team that is needed to keep the home going is useful. In most cases a parent may be permissive while the other is strict.if you leave a child in the custody of only the very permissive parent, the child will tend to be very pampered spoilt. On the other hand if you leave that same child in the custody of only the strict parent, the child may end up being timid. But both parents will most definately team up to produce a confident and disciplined child..it's a team work thing.
Growing up, most of us preferred the permissive parent but right now , we look back and appriciate the one that beat us with 'turn garri' abi na lie i talk.
These days sef, their roles are intertwined.

Remember the roles each of them are playing in your family.
