Every parent's responsibility is to take care of their child.

They have to provide them with food, clothes, education


and things like that. Some people think that a mom's or
dad's duty for his/her kid stops when the kid turns 18.
Other people think this duty never stops.
On the one hand, there are some reasons why some
people say that a parent's responsibility for his/her child
ends when the child reaches the age of 18. Firstly, by
turning 18 children finish school so they start going to
university or they can start work which means that they
leave their homes and they start taking care of
themselves. Secondly, by the age of 18 you become an
adult which means you become responsible for some
things and you can for example go to jail if you do
something stupid and your parents shouldn't be
responsible for the stupid things that you do. Thirdly,
some parents had to grow up and become adults even
before they turned 18 because of some difficult
situations like wars so it is only logical for them to expect
that their kids will become independent when turning 18.
On the other hand, there are some reasons why some
people say parent's responsibility for their child never
ends. Firstly, just because their kinds grow up it doesn't
mean that they stop being their parents so they still have
responsibilites but not the same ones that they used to
have. Secondly, if they had to start their life at 18, they as
parents know how hard it was for them, so they don't
want their kinds to stuggle like they did. Lastly, regardless
the struggle you have to go through to become
independent, we all need help from time to time, and no
one knows us better than our parents.
To conclude, as it was already mentioned, there are both
reasons why parent's responsibility ends when child turns
18 and why it doesn't such as it being neccessary to truly
become independent and also not being able to ajdust to
taking care of everything so suddenly without your
parent's help. I think that parents should always have a
small dose of responsibility and care for their child, but of
course kids have to live independetly.
