 What are some of the qualities of a good parent? Use specific details and examples to explain your answer.

Different parents have different methods to teach their own children. When faced with the decision of what some of the qualities of a good parent are, each person has his own opinion. From my point of view, I consider that consideration, encouragement, communication, and care are the qualities of a good parent. There are numerous reasons why I hold the above opinion, and I would explore only a few of the important ones here.
* method = 방법 / be faced with = ~와 마주하다 / quality = 자질 / From my point of view = 내가 보기에는, 나의 의견으로는 / consideration = 배려 / encouragement = 격려 / care = 보살핌, 돌봄 / numerous = 많은 / explore = 탐구하다, 탐험하다

The primary reason why I persist in the above opinion is that these qualities help parents and children to understand each other. For example, consideration is a key to good relationships between parents and their children. When parents stand at children's point of view, it is easier for them to understand why children are behaving like that, and what they are thinking. This is will give parents a full understanding, and they will be able to find a suitable method to teach his children what to do correctly and how to do on such a thing. By such consideration and communication, children, of course, can accept their parent's advice. Meanwhile they can eliminate the so-called "generation gap", and the relationship between parents and their children is getting along very well.
* primary reason = 주요한 이유, 주된 이유 / persist = 의견을 고집하다, 계속하다, 지속하다 / point of view = 관점, 각도, 견해 / suitable = 적절한, 적합한 / accept = 수용하다, 받아들이다 / advice = 조언, 충고 / meanwhile = 그 동안에; 한편 / eliminate = 제거하다 / so-called = 소위, 이른바 / generation gap = 세대차 / get along = 어울리다, 사이가 좋다

Another factor which should deserve some words is that these qualities can promote children to make progress. For instance, encouragement is an effective way for a parent to teach his children. When a child fails to do something, because of his limited knowledge and experience, if his parent can encourage the child to do it again and help the child analyze the reason why what he has done is wrong. Then the child can learn more knowledge and will try it again, and he will succeed in doing such a thing finally.
* factor = 요소 / deserve = ~받을만 하다, 누릴 자격이 있다 / promote = 촉진하다, 고취하다 / make progress = 진행하다, 전진하다 / limited knowledge = 제한된 지식 / analyze = 분석하다 / succeed = 성공하다 / finally = 결국, 마침내

What is more, these qualities help children grow up healthily. When parents take care of their children, children can feel family's care and can stay at home very happy. This is very useful for children to grow up healthily. With these, children can form excellent character and be confident in doing things.
* what is more = 게다가, 더욱이 / grow up = 자라다, 성장하다 / healthily = 건강하게, 건전하게 / take care of = 돌보다 / excellent = 훌륭한, 탁월한 / character = 성격, 기질 /confident = 자신감 있는, 확신이 있는

In a word, to be a good parent is not an easy thing, but with parents' effort, each parent can do it very well. From what I have stated above, you may agree with my statement that consideration, encouragement, communication and care are the qualities of a good parent.
* In a word = 한 마디로, 간추리자면 / effort = 노력 / statement = 성명, 진술
