When You Discover That Your Parents Were Right by Kalatium(op):
What are the Best Advice Your Parents Gave You then as kids but you didn’t realize was true until you became adults.?


For me:

"'No one can make you feel the way you don't want to feel.' My Dad.

Never trust anyone hundred percent.

"Not all the people who laugh with you are your friends' I realized very very late.


"As my dad loved to say: ‘By the time you realize what your father said was right, you’ll have a son or daughter who’ll tell you you’re wrong!’"

My mom used to say that " the truth is like a seed , even if you bury it in the ground, it will surely germinate."........
As a kid, this never made sense to me until I became an adult.

I could remember my mom's quote. The way you treat other people's things, that's the sane way you did treat yours.

My parents always encouraged me to be kind to people no matter what. I grew up with this mentality and this affected me negatively.

If I had known I would have stayed wicked but I wasn't raised like that. I still feel bad because I don't know how to treat people bad. I always want to make people feel happy.

Mum used to say, 'The water fish is destined to drink from, will never flow pass it mouth'.

And I keep realising how truthful the saying is.
