- The philosopher:
The author says it is the second most vital role of parents. The philosopher’s role can help the child to understand the purpose of life.

Modeling is not the fashion world; it makes a role model for kids. It is related to the moral values of parents that they pass to their children. Parents should work hard in this scenario to ensure that children are connecting with their values or not if they should keep these values in daily life. Practice with these values the child engages with them.
- The negotiator:
This role of parents is different from other tasks because it teaches children to stand for themselves. Children can feel proud and confident in front of any person.
- The GPS navigational voice:
Last but not least, the thought of parents. GPS navigational voice means parents’ thoughts and values with their child, and he will never forget them. When a child interacts with different people, he starts to understand the things his parents told. At that time, if a child follows those values in life, he can succeed in life.

All parenting roles are significant but not easy.
Parents should explore their child’s thoughts and understand them. Ask them how they feel about this world and how they will tackle all the situations. Pre-evaluation of the capability of a child can survive in this world. That all things are just related to making them sharp, intense, emotional, and understanding of the world. The most important role is the “revealer” because it makes sure the parents what their child reacts to and what he wants to become in his life. It makes child inner strength more powerful, and they will attract to their goal. So Ferguson explains these 8 roles of parents are worth implementing in real life.
