Don't rely on cliches when you write about your parent character. Do strive for authenticity in portraying these roles. Don't neglect the reality of a parent's responsibility to their children. Do develop your characters in a way that reflects their preoccupation with their children.
A good parent is someone who encourages the child to do something he/she enjoys doing; who instills in the child a strong sense of morality; who corrects the child when the child is doing something wrong; who teaches the importance of respect and diligence; and who imparts to the child a willingness to learn.
