In today's society, parents often emphasize the limitless possibilities the future can hold for their kids. However, this is not always the case, some parents give their kids a clear path to a clear goal. For example, some parents may tell their kids to "follow your dreams, you can be successful at anything you put your mind to" while others may be more precise, telling their children from a very early age that they are going to be a lawyer or doctor, making all of the moves to ensure their children's success.
But does doing this really increase your childs chances of success? Which method do you think is better? How will, or how do you parent your children? What have your parents done to make you successful?

I will definitely be the type of parent that allows my children to do whatever makes them happy. I feel this way because I think the ultimate goal in life is to be happy and the only way to accomplish that is by doing what makes you happy. It sounds simple, but sometimes we get caught up in other aspects of life like money and power that aren't always driven by our happiness.
ReplyDeleteUltimately, I just want my children to live happy, healthy lives in a fashion of their choosing.
