[quote=Anonymous]My parents raised four successful children. My parents were really good role models. They worked hard, were devoted to their kids, and even when their marriage hit rough patches (my dad worked a lot which my mother resented) they got through it and set an example of endurance. They enrolled us in activities and encouraged us to excel. They had high expectations of us academically but we were supported if we ever struggled. We spend a lot of quality time together on weekends. My parents are also good and generous people - really, I just think a combination of setting a good example and being thoughtful about your family values. That said, one of my siblings was rebellious as a teen (but is ultimately the most financially successful of any of us as an adult) and that was very hard on my parents. You can do everything right and still have hard times. So set your values and your boundaries, put in your time and do your best and hope for the best. [/quote]
