Listening to mom has benefits

The older I get, which isn’t slowing down, the more I realize I should have listened better through out my life. When I was growing up I should have listened to my parents instruction more. I could have paid better attention in college and I could have learned more in many other situations.
The writer of proverbs gives us a great one liner to remember for all of life:
My son, obey your father’s commands,
and don’t neglect your mother’s instruction. Proverbs 6:20 
He also goes on to tell us the benefits to following the instruction,

When you walk, their counsel will lead you.
When you sleep, they will protect you.
When you wake up, they will advise you. Proverbs 6:22

That seems to be a good reason to listen to parents’ instruction.
