Answer 1

Answer: The three most important things that I have learned from my parents are:

2. Be prepared to handle any kind of situation.
3. Always have self-confidence.

Although parents plays an important role in children's life, there are some other people who also inspire us the most. My teachers, my best friend as well as my grandfather had great influence on me. They have taught many things that I have never been able to learn from anywhere. My teacher always used to teach things that always inspire us. She used to say that hard times comes in everyone's life but we should always face it with lots of courage. My best friend still inspires me by insisting that once the time or the occasion gone will never come back so enjoy the moment. My grandfather taught me that the time never stays the same, we should be very much concerned about the time.

My parents and my inspirational people used the method of primary socialization as they taught me the way of living. Primary socialization is a kind of socialization which happens when a child or a person learns the values, norms and behaviors that should be encouraged in order to live to a specific culture or the environment.
