I got a quote on school, and it was my job to understand the meaning behind it. “It kills you to see them grow up”. When I hear that sentence I think that it’s hard for every parent to see their child grow up, from being a little boy or girl to see them going through different phases of their childhood. The parents have a lot of responsibility of their children and it’s probably hard to see them moving out, and get their own Family.

When parent says that it kills them to see their child grow up, I`m thinking of those parents who never get the chance to see their kids growing old. People who lose their children to cancer, other diseases and car accidents are things that really hurt and kill….
