They only want the best for you, they were there from your first moments of light and will be there for you indefinitely, we are all faced with hard decisions, seeing a child grow up is hard for a parent, just be patient and love the time you spend with them !

Because they just want to look out for you and protect you (even though what they probably think is wrong ;-) )

They think so because according they too have gone through the life-cycle that we are going like from being a kid to growing teen n then mature , but they never tries to understand this generation and technology gap that has actually being created.

Parents think they know everything because they've spent more time on this planet than their children, they generally think they've lived through it all.

They don't necessarily know everything. They have just experienced more situations that they have learned from.

Parents don't think they know everything. Sometimes they just want what they think is best for you. They may believe that because they have brought up their children, they know a lot more than them.

Sometimes parents advice us on what to do because they do have so much more experience than us! We should take time to listen to what they have to say too, instead of assuming that they are not right. :)

Because they know that they've been in your situations once and most parents don't want to have you, their kid, to repeat the same mistake as they did in the past when dealing with the same situation.
