I shave every day, but my beard stays the same. What am I?

A father's child, a mother's child, yet no one's son.

Who am I?

I’m tall when I’m young, and I’m short when I’m old. What am I?

As a whole I am both
safe and secure.

Behead me and I become
a place of meeting.

Behead me again and I am
the partner of ready.

Restore me, and I become
the domain of beasts.

What am I?

Take one out and scratch my head, I am now black but once was red. What am I?

Until it is measured, not known. Yet how you miss it when it has gone. What is it?

There's a day, that comes around once a year.
To celebrate the man, you hold dear.
He gave you life, love and will pick you up if you fall.
When it comes to guys like him, He's the best of all.
Who is he?

What is in seasons, seconds, centuries and minutes but not in decades, years or days?

I am sometimes honest
Sometimes dishonest
I can be sweet and also bitter
I can hurt you real bad and
also make u smile and blush ☺️
What am I?

Spelt forwards I’m what you do every day, spelled backwards I’m something you hate. What am I?
