What do you want your children to become?

I think it is not fair to ask/force children to be or do something. It should be left to their choice. Because it is ultimately their own life, and inspite of being parents we have no right to direct their lives. I personally wouldnt ask my children to become something...I would just want them to be happy with what they are happy with and would pray for them to have a peaceful life. Marriage again should be their personal choice. Goodday

I do not have kids yet, but when i do, i dotn think i will mind what they will be doing. I mean, id lie if i say i dont want my future kids to have these bomb jobs where they make bank. lol. But i only want that if thats what they want. If they become janitors, and they are happy, then that's great. :]

I want my children to become a business man or business woman. I make sure while they are young, I will teach them how to handle money. I will not spoil them, I will just give them what they needed. I want to share them what i learned in money and how to be positive in life. The reason I want them to be in business, so that they will learn to challenge theirselves and I want them to be financially literate. I don't want them to be a employee, I want them the one who give employment.

Well i want my children to be what they want to be.I dont want to force them to become something that i want to be, because their choice and their intrest matters a lot than my favouritism.Its their life so it will be their decision.I will always be there to tell them what is good and best for them but the ultimate decision is theirs because they will always have their independence at certain levels in life.

as much as I want my daughters to be models and my sons to be doctors and businessmen,I want them to be someone who they want to be with.I want them to fulfill their dreams.my only hope is they can live comfortably.I don't want them to be deprived.I want them to be happy with their lives and can contribute goodness to the society.

My children are becoming who ever they want to be, my only job is to assure that they don't hurt anybody doing it.

vijay, I just want my kids to become positive, productive, and happy members of society. I do not particularly care if they become doctors, lawyers and such, just as long as they are not a burden on society and they contribute to the betterment thereof. All three of them are lovely individuals and have the potential to be whatever they choose, I just hope that will be something that society can be served by.

Hello Vijay :) What a great question! My three daughters are all grown now and have children of their own. The oldest daughter is and RN in an ICU unit for premature and sick babies. She is also the mom of three sons and taking college courses to raise her degree from Assoc. to BA. She will then become a nurse practioner. My second daughter works in a large office for an insurance company, and also takes further education to earn her promotions. She and her husband have a son. My youngest is still deciding on a career and is the mom of four--3 sons, 1 daughter. The thing I have always wanted is for my children to love others and be loved in return, and be happy and healthy, doing good for others, too. Karen

Hello Vijay, It's not for me to decide what they want to become someday.I can suggest according to what i see based on their capacity,talents and interests,but still the final decission is for them to choose what they wanted to be. And for life when they can start living of their own,my wish is,for them to become a good parents to their children and be their kids role model also.

I hope my daughter will live a life that she enjoys.

Hi Vijayanths, I am not yet married. But I have some plans about my future. I dont want to push my children in future like they must become something like you said. This is something unnecessary and due to this deed children lose their nature. By nature everyone have some skills and we are here to develop. So I let them to grow with their interest. There is a total spoil of their nature. By birth someone paints, someone do crafts, some are creative, some are thinker. So it is good to let them in their way and I believe in this principle. Happy Mylotting.

I would like my child to become what ever he sets his mind to. I will always support him because it was his choice and he came up with it on his own. But if it is ridiculous than I have to stop it.
