My promise to my children - as long as I live - I am your parent first, your friend second.  I will stalk you, flip out on you, lecture you, drive you insane, be your worst nightmare and hunt you down like a bloodhound when needed because I LOVE YOU!  When you understand that, I will know that you are a responsible adult.  You will NEVER find someone who loves, prays, cares and worries about you more than I do!  If you don't hate me once in your life - I am not doing my job properly.
