What makes a good parent?

Remember when I talked about the book Surviving the Applewhites?
Well, while we read the book, we filled out a study guide. One of the questions asked about what makes a good parent (I think I've mentioned this in a previous post). These were some of the answers my students in 7th period gave:

-"A good parent is that she feeds you trust you and gives you the freedom she thinks she can trust you with."
-"Well there are good parents because they have fun together, they play togither."
-"They should be nice and fun!"
-"to be a good paret you have to be hard working and fun but with disaplen [discipline]"
-"A good parent is if they are nice to them and have a good job to by them something."
-"They will make you do chors [chores]"
-"The best parents are the ones who don't care what you do as long as you don't get in trouble."

I kept the spelling and grammar errors because it makes them so much more endearing. :)
Aren't these great though. I thought you might enjoy them.
