Nurperi Doğangüneş

by Gökçen from Adana, Turkey

My mum, Nurperi, is my Hero. Because she is my supporter in my life. Everytime, I rely on her. I like my dad as much as my mum. But I feel more relaxed with my mum.

I’m able to talk about everything with her. She is always very understanding to me. When I have problems, she helps me and finds solutions quickly. Sometimes I have some problems with my lesson marks. Many students in my country have this problem, I mean, if you have bad marks, you have bigger problem with your parents! But it isn’t a problem for her. Because she relies on me and she believes I will be successful. I want to be successful at school and in life. So I try harder. She knows that.

When I buy something new or I have to decide about something, I consult my mum. Because she helps me to find what is good and right. She never compares me with others. She loves me the way I am. She loves and respects my friend.

Yes, she is very important for me in my life. She is my guide. She is a very good mother. She is a symbol for me: friendly, honest, confident.

In the future, I won’t be a housewife like her, but I will try to be a mother like her.
