  Have you ever wanted parents that have super powers, teleporting you to wherever you wanted to go? Have you ever wished to have parents that have special abilities? Have you ever wished that you have parents who always helps you in your exams, allowing you to get full marks?

  I knew that these things were not possible. But have you ever thought about how much your parents had put in you? While some parents have not done enough in their child, my parents certainly did.

  At first you might be thinking about the same old things your parents do to you. Scolding, caning, slapping, threatening, blaming, pushing, chanting all around and much more... But on the other hand, you might be thinking about why they were doing those things. Why do they scold you? Some children were just wondering. Your parents, of course, have the reason.

  Till this stage, I bet that you all know who are my heroes. Yes- they are the fantastic two- my parents. It was quite odd of thinking of this idea. Physically, you might ask, "How can your parents be like the super heroes in the cartoon, or something like that?" But literally, I do not feel odd at all. Coming back to the question "Why do your parents scold you?", I must say that your parents were actually teaching you to be good when they scold you. As some parents do not know what to do when you are not obedient, they started scolding you, or sometimes using other physical reactions like caning, slapping etc.

  While on the other hand, some parents might be just having fun. Like for me, sometimes, my parents were acting to be fierce just a little fun. You might go fun back, only if you are sure that your parent is trying to be fun.

  Let's now think about when your parents are fantastic. Sometimes, they spend the whole night maybe just to get you some information helpful to your project. They might also be spending the whole day thinking about how to manage your birthday party. Your parents always think of you before themselves. Let's take a real life example. In the recent earthquake in China, many parents died trying to save their child. And that's what heroes meant to me.

  Most parents are selfless and helpful. Even if they cannot get the things you wanted, they will always give you tips on how to get those things. Always in a way or another, your parents will do their best to do whatever you need.

  But if only your parents were good to you, it would not be enough. Once you knew what your parents have done for you, you must also think of what should you do to them.

  Parents also sacrifices somethings to achieve in what you wanted. For instant, they might be going to shop in the mall but you suddenly jumped out and requested them for a swim. Some parents will sacrifice their weekly shop or postpone it to another day.

  To sum up, your parents really do a lot for you, and I can consider them as heroes.
