Kids Reveal How They Felt When Their Parents Missed Life Changing Events

We want our loved ones to be there with us during the most important moments in our lives, especially our parents. Many of our childhood memories are shared with them. This is why their presence in our major life events is of the utmost importance. If your parents are always there to support you every step of the way, then you’re very fortunate. It’s truly sad to know that there are less fortunate kids whose parents missed life changing events in their lives. Here’s what they have to say…
