Your parents gave you life, raised you, and loved you unconditionally. They deserve your respect, love, and appreciation. Here are 100 things you should never do to your parents:

Do not disrespect them. This includes talking back, rolling your eyes, or making snide comments. Your parents are your elders, and they deserve to be treated with respect.
Do not ignore them. When your parents talk to you, listen to them. Do not ignore them or pretend you do not hear them. They have something important to say, and they deserve your attention.
Do not argue with them all the time. It is okay to disagree with your parents, but do not argue with them all the time. This will only create tension and conflict between you. Instead, try to see things from their perspective and understand why they feel the way they do.
Do not try to change them. Your parents are who they are, and you cannot change them. Do not try to force them to be someone they are not. Instead, accept them for who they are and love them unconditionally.
Do not take them for granted. Your parents will not always be there for you, so do not take them for granted. Cherish the time you have with them and make the most of it.
Do not lie to them. Your parents deserve your honesty. Do not lie to them about anything, even if you think it is for their own good. They will eventually find out the truth, and it will only hurt them more.
Do not steal from them. Your parents have worked hard for their money and possessions. Do not steal from them, even if you think they will not miss it. It is wrong, and it will break their trust in you.
Do not hurt them. This includes physical, emotional, or verbal abuse. Your parents do not deserve to be hurt by you, and you will only regret it later.
Do not abandon them. Your parents will always be your parents, even if you grow up and move away. Do not abandon them in their old age. They need your love and support more than ever.
Do not forget them. As you get older, do not forget your parents. Make time for them and visit them as often as you can. They will cherish the time you spend with them.

These are just a few of the things you should never do to your parents. Remember, they are the ones who gave you life, raised you, and loved you unconditionally. They deserve your respect, love, and appreciation.
