Abstract
Proverbs are considered as a compendium of wisdom that conveys in a highly synthetic way different aspects of the daily life of men and their circumstances over time, with a markedly didactic role. In this article we present and analyze the different focalizations on the basic principles of education that parents transmit to their children taking as a source the Spanish proverb tradition. Although the proverbs are conceived as timeless, their ancient origin and ancestral nature has relegated them to a situation of apparent forgetfulness in relation both to the teachings they contain and to their use in everyday speech.
