Here’s what Harvard says about recommendations from their website: https://college.harvard.edu/frequently-asked-questions
Who should write my recommendations? Teachers who know you well and who have taught you in academic subjects (preferably in the final two years of secondary school) typically will provide us with the most valuable testimony. Whenever possible, teachers should tell us about your non-academic interests and personal qualities as well as academic potential.
Nowhere on Harvard’s website does it say anything about parents writing recommendation letters. @DrDean794 : PLEASE PROVIDE A LINK SO THAT ALL OF US CAN SEE!
