Do you expect your children to do things that you were unsuccesful with..?

High expectations lead of severe disappointments and distress if the expectations are not met. I would place a bit of expectation from my children, but I would also remember that being humans, they have their own lives and they are able to make their own decisions that may not meet my expectations. I'd of course relate to them my dreadful experiences and unsuccessful attempts to give them an awareness of what is in store for them. What is important to me is that my children be successful. So, in general, I wouldn't expect too much from my kids as long as they earn an honest living, be honest and be good citizens.

Hi Jimmy .. I Want my kids to excel In everything They Do .. But it is Up to them What they do .. There will Be Absolutely no Pushing From My Side .. Thank You ..

I don't expect my kid to do things that I was unsuccessful with. I would push them towards certain stuff but only if they show an interest in it earlier. Sometimes they can get lazy, you know and a little discipline in that sense is rightfully required. At the end of the day, I just want them to be happy with whatever skills they have learnt along the way, be responsible and earn an honest living.

Well for I don't expect that much for me my baby. My priority right now is to take good care of her, give as much of my time. And when she grows I wanted her to choose on her own, on what career she would do, that's why I put more extra effort to give more care and love for so that she can be a great in anything she would do someday.
