should we fullfil our parents' dreams?

It is our duty to fulfill our parents dreams. They have sacrificed many things for us. They have done what we wanted. Even, when we grow up they take care of us. They feel happy, when other praise us. They had forgot to think about themselves. We have to fulfill their dreams which is not only good for them but also for us.

of course we shud fulfill dere dreams whtever they coz they r da one who brought us in dis world

You are lucky. At least your parents had a dream about you. My parents were landlords and they were interested only in thier own world. But they sent me to school and college. I do not remember any day on which they asked me " what subject was taught today etc.." I am not blaming them since they lived in a world different from our generation. However now I have good Government job and I am happy.

i think since tehy have fulfilled our each and evry dream and always gave priority which we needed or good fo r us so its our duty to fulfill their dreams.

How difficult to discuss this problem clearly.Generally speaking,things that parents want you do are benefit for you because they have more experience than you.If we do not obey them ,maybe we will make mistakes or make them feel very unhappy.But if we obey them completely,we will lose ourselves.It is a difficult choice.For,my parents always hasten me to be married.Now I am married,but I do not feel happy because I like the freedom of single.So I think when we are enough experienced to judge whether it is right to obey things that parents arrange for you ,it has been too late.For us ,what we can do is to believe what we have choosen is best and do not hesitate.It sounds self-deceit,but do we have the right to choose again?If we do,we can do.If not,we accept.

No matter how old we are , we are still the children of our parents, so I think we need to fullfil our parents'dream, If we do so , in my own way , I think , to some degree, it can make our parents happy.what's more , parents always have more mature experience than us. Generally speaking, the things they choose are better than us.

I feel every parent wants the best for their children, so it is fine to obey parents and fulfill their wishes. But one more thing is there that is destiny of a child/individual, dreams of parents is fulfilled only if destiny also has the same dream for you.After reading your story to me seems you married a person of right status and then for keeping you intellectually busy you have this job of teacher. Regarding love sometimes we flow in passion and mistake it for love, but as you are married so better be careful of every step you take it might ruin your life as well, sometimes we do not realise what is in out hand and desire what we do not have.

i believe in individuality. I believe that each one of us has been given our OWN TIME to live our way. I think living up to your parent's dreams is not bad since, yes, parents want the best for their child... But then, if you're gonna fulfill their dreams, its just like living the life they failed to live. Usually, that's where parent's dreams for their children comes from - their own frustrations. I was often contradicted with this statement: My parents had their own time and they managed to lead the life they wanted, so why would i not have the freedom to live my life and do what i want to do with the time i had been given? God gave us our own time to live our own lives the wanted as long as we can afford it.. hehehe =). This doesn't mean that you around looking for trouble and do exactly the opposite of what your parents want for you or what can be considered as "good and honorable life". This means that whether your plans for yourself coincides with their plans for you, you still have the liberty to do what you think is good for you. I believe you are aready an adult who can decide for yourself. And being an adult means standing their ground and taking actions with the decisions they made - whether its good or bad. Moreover, your parents dream for you in consideration of what they think is valuable.. and values are different for each person.. other person's treasure may be someone else's trash.. you know.. you can't be so sure if what your parents build for you is really something you will need when they are not around anymore.. And so, hey, you say that you're married right now? And you think you are likely to be disturbed by someone else? oh.. this thing happens to a lot of other people out there. But this is not related to your parents' dreams for you anymore.. this is about you. You and what you will do with your marriage. Even if you have made your own choice of a man you want to spend the rest of your life with, along the way, God might put you on a test of how strong you are in keeping up your love for your husband.. so don't say that you were just made to believe that your parents' dreams are good.. because they really maybe are! And that right now, you were just simplyput into a test.. good luck! remember, we can always listen to advices, but the moment we made a decision on which advice to take, then, WE are the ones in action. We can't say, they did it for us.. rather, we decide for ourselves to follow what they suggested. Its us who took the action and must take responsibility, not those who guided us.

I also have the tinking,i want my chirld can fullfil my dream,i want my chirld to be musician,haw,haw,because i want to be a musician,but i think i won't fullfil my dream.For me,if my parents have their dreams want me to fullfil,i think i won't refuse.

I think it is nice to want to fullfil your parents dreams but I think everyone should do what they want to, there is no need to do something someone else wants you do because you might not be as good as you would be if it were something you really wanted to do.

well i agree to the fact that we should fulfill our parents dream but only when we can..i mean to say that everything should have a limit.our parents always select the better for us but it doesnt mean that it would be the best!!!and the main thing a person has to lead his or her own life to know wat life is???u cant depend on ne1 to tk decisions for u.. and as for ur falling in love after all these years..dont mind...but it totally depends on u...tk some time and take a deep breath..relax urself and then think wat do u want to do...just remember 1 thing dont do nething for which u have to repent afterwards..coz itz ur life and u have to mend it...tk cr and all d best..tata..lol:)

i believe that every1 shud be wah they want because if our parents try and discourage us from wah we dream of duin jus because they want us to be sumthin else then i think that would would be the questioning of good parenting or bad parenting if my mom told menot to follow my dream i would still follow them nt in disrespect to my mom bt to the respect that its my life n in ma life i do things my way nt a way my mom or dad is telling me cos that is control and itz onli u that is allowed that. well that is my opinion does anyone disagree with wah im saying i find this topic very intresting will b chekin bk soon xx
