It's so cool when parents do this, sacrifice a little - or a lot - without expecting anything in return.
What did you sacrifice recently? Or what did your parents sacrifice for you? We'd love to hear.
You could win a T-shirt if the story makes us smile or cry.
Here are some stories of parents doing their best, to inspire us:
Yes, she's special
She was sniffing drugs
Princess Fiona's shoes
ADHD, my son and me
