"If you win the Olympic golden medal, whom do you want to give it to?" 25.9 percent of 4000 participants answered that they would give it to their moms and only 7 percent said that they will give the golden medal to their dads. Some dads might feel psychologically unbalanced. But this is what a surveys says. Do children feel closer to their moms than dads? Yes, definitely. Many surveys and researches have proved this. Not only in Japan but also in China, a country mostly influenced by confucianism, children like their moms than their dads. Have you ever heard of "严父慈母 (Yan 2 Fu 4 Ci 2 Mu 3 stern father and compassionate mother) "? This phrase is the best proof. Perhaps, that's why most Chinese children are afraid of their dads. Whom do you feel closer to, dad or mom?

Athletes & their mother trivia:

Michael Phelps is very close to his mother, Debbie. He and his two sisters were raised single-handedly by his divorced mother since he was 9. He bought a Mercedes Benz SUV for his mother.

LeBron James never knew his biological father. He and his mother always moved when he was little because of financial problems. Now, she wears a jersey with the words "LeBron's Mom" on its back. He has her name tattooed on his biceps. She still refers to him as "my baby" or "Bron-Bron." He calls her the most significant person in his life.

In most of the cases, I think children feel more comfortable and closer with their mom compare to father is because when they were young, their mom took a really good care on them. However, fathers are looking for a business opportunity and do not have much time sharing together with their children. Therefore, as the children grow up and adult, they feel closer and willingly to share any good or bad idea with their mother.

Mother is always be there for children no matter how busy she is....

In conclusion, everyone should obey and respect the mothers...
