ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Parent

A parent is a person who takes care of a child. Just like how your mom or dad takes care of you, they are your parents. They make sure you eat healthy food, take a bath, brush your teeth, and do your homework.

Parents also keep you safe from any danger or harm. They give you hugs, kiss you goodnight, and tell you stories. They love you very much and want to see you grow up to be a happy and healthy person.

You can talk to your parents when you have a problem or need help with something. They are there to guide you and support you. Being a parent is a big responsibility, but it's also a lot of fun!
