One of the biggest motivators of parents is to be able to provide well for their kids.
There are the usual basics of being able to provide adequate food and shelter as well as the (hopefully) occasional medical needs. When a parent is unable to provide for any of these basic needs, stress levels go up.
It’s not uncommon to see one or both parents work long hours at their jobs or sometimes even taking on two jobs just to be able to make sure that their kids are able to eat three square meals a day and have a roof over their heads.
Watch the priceless reaction of the twins below.

As for education, fortunately, there’s public education although college might still pose a challenge.
But one thing is clear, parenting is a full-time job in itself making sure that one’s family is well-provided for. But assuming all basic needs are met, kids can also be quite demanding with their wants and hobbies. It’s also a parent’s job to manage these expectations because there simply may not be enough in the budget to indulge.
Still, when a child is passionate enough about something, no parent can resist working towards giving their children what they want. In this case, it was a pair of twins who were wrestling super fans who totally freaked out after their parents gave them tickets to their first live event for their birthday.
Parents David and Miranda Robertson decided to surprise their sons Cooper and Carter on September 8, the twins’ birthday, at their home in Cullman, Alabama. It started off with a poem in the form of catchphrases from WWE superstars that the nine-year-olds took turns reading.
Slowly getting an inkling of what was up, when the opened the huge board, they finally got confirmation they were heading to a RAW live event and the twins couldn’t help but cry and hug everyone in the room.
David said: “The boys still say they think it’s a dream and they’re going to wake up.
“They’ve even had my wife pinch them, literally.
“Their reactions, especially Cooper’s, was so instantaneous and genuine.
“Everyone at the party cried.
“It was one of the best moments of my life, seeing the pure joy they felt.
“They have been wrestling fans since they were in the womb.
“Those kids kicked each other and mommy so much it was fun to watch.”
The twins actually wanted to go to a live event three years ago.
David couldn’t afford it at the time but both parents worked hard to save up the money to make the wish of their twins come true. They even managed to save up enough to also buy tickets for Miranda’s parents which pleased her mom Linda who is also a huge wrestling fan like her grand-kids.
David said: “I posted the video on social media on the day of the party and the very next day around I noticed a comment on the post.
“It was from a Mr. Hunter in Tampa, Florida, and the video moved him so much he wanted to reimburse us the cost of the tickets.
“The very next day he transferred $1,000 into our PayPal account.”
