Thanks, My name is Mahmooda and this message was a result of a message that I read at SPARK. I felt overwhelmed by emotion and had to respond. Yes, we love our children but what about when the clock says their turn. And they run...........not fair.

Our parents are very important! They indeed did do everything for us when we couldn't do for ourselves. I lost my Mom about 5 years ago but still have my 90-year-old Dad's company to enjoy. I will pray for you to have some peace of mind regarding your children. They will "get it" once they are a little older. Take care.

My name is Mahmooda Nasira and I was just reviewing a message and post about taking care of parents. I am a parent and I am frightened of aging. Grown kids FORGET. I am a single parent and for the most part I raised my 29, 20, and 15 yr. old. My self. On aid and work. Now I am 54 and I'm scared because they don't realize or forgot that I basicly sacrifised my needs for theirs . Oh how kids foget . When your at a doctors office or fullfilling and obligation with parents REMEMBER ; Didn't they do their part? How do you get all your shots? How did your diapers get changed? How? So when your with blues; Think about who was there for YOU? ameenanasira331@yahoo.com
