My Role Model: Dad
MY ROLE MODEL MY role model is my dad Robert, he is an amazing guy. He was a little wild as a teenager but over came that after a couple years. He met my mother back in 1982. They both started dating; she jokes and says he wanted me for my chicken, because she was working at church’s chicken. I found that really funny growing up. When I came along they were stationed in Germany where I was born in September 1983. I don’t really remember to much about Germany other than my dad had his own race car and would race on the weekends. My dad and mom did so much with me as a child; at a young age he would have me help him. I was always side by side with him. In April of 1986 came my sister. Through the years my dad has always taught us if u starts something you must finish it. My dad always told me to be truthful because at the end of the day the only person you’re lying to is yourself. Be proud of you and all your choices and you shouldn’t ever have to say what if. My dad is my role model because he has served 32 years in the army and 4 deployments, he has always supported his family and never let us down. I’m so proud to call him my father and my role model. He was a little wild as child but grew up to be a man that everyone respects and acklowdges.

    During my pre adolescent years, as best as I can recall, my mother was the driving influence behind my development. She is a good person and a mother with an iron will and a strict way, and I believe that she was one of my first role models. My father played a part in my development also. He instilled in me the morals and values that I have today and I thank him for that. Unfortunately my father passed away thirteen years ago before I had a chance to tell him that.…

    In my opinion, parents are the most effective and influential role models in the lives of their children. The youth of society can learn from, and aspire to be like their parents as they are being reared in their childhood years. Fathers and mothers strive to teach their children important values and beliefs as well as demonstrate attitudes and behaviors considered appropriate and beneficial for society’s well being. Parents strive to ensure that their children are successful in their efforts, both personally and socially. They stand tall, maintaining positive and nurturing attitudes. Good parents with effective parenting skills continually create important, life lessons because they understand, that as youth, children look to them for guidance. Parents pave the way for young people to build a bright future. They teach skills to their children so that they are able to sustain themselves in today’s society and progress. Children are society’s hope for a better future, for a thriving living environment in the world, and for inspiring the forward progression of the human race. There is no doubt that mothers and fathers are prime examples of effective role models.…

    My dad has been my role model ever since I can remember. He has taught so much but the most is to work hard. It is not really always by his words but more by his actions. Seeing him get up at five in the morning and go to work. Then when he was done he would go do a side job for 4-5 more hours and come home and spend time with us for a few hours and go to bed and do the same thing again the next day. See him do this for so long really taught me that if you work hard in life than you can achieve anything you want.…

    My Mom is my role model. I guess this is due to the fact that I used to scarcely see my Dad because he comes home really late; he still does, though not as late, while my Mother took care of me ever since she quit the job as the General Manager when I was in 2nd grade. She is the one who is there for me whenever I have a problem, like a robot on standby, but she is also a harsh whip with her discipline though she never hit me. My most notable memory of my Mom is when I sucked at math in 3rd grade. I don't know how to do a problem so naturally, I asked her. However, after she taught the same problem 4 times, I still didn't get it. I was afraid she would get mad, but she didn't and in the end when I finally got it, I asked her why she is so patient. She simply replied "practice makes perfect", an old…

    A good role model is someone who can make positive choices on his or her own. They are a person that people especially young kids can look up to in hopes to follow in their footsteps. They do not have to be famous but as a whole, they need to live a life that allows people to want to achieve goals and try to do the right things. I think mentors should be role models, BUT a role model who hasn't forgotten where s/he came from, how s/he got to where s/he is now and always looking back to see if s/he can help those that came from the very same place and positive role model should be encouraging and must have ability to recognised the qualities of employees working under his/her and a positive role model should show his/her technical ability and time management skills as well.…

    A second way that I feel I am a good role model would be being punctual, this is important and it indicates that you want to be wherever you are and shows that you’re professional in what you do. In the setting if I were to always arrive late and after the children did they may think that I am not interested in being there but it may impact them in later life as they may go on to think that being on time is not important.…

    The term role model generally means any "person who serves as an example, whose behaviour is emulated by others". The individual that I chose from a young age to emulate my behavior off of is Spongebob Squarepants.He is a sponge that lives at the bottom of the ocean in a town called Bikini Bottom, where he works at a local burger restaurant called the Krusty Krab. He’s not my hero in the idea that he lives alone and works in fast food for his entire life but because he is the most loyal and determined individual that I can think of. He taught me that no matter how old you are, to never let go of your inner child.…
