Oh you hit the right spot right where it hurts. This is so true. Parents who are often frustrated about their own failures have high demands from kids, making them feel always inferior. A parent with such inferiority complexes will most likely traumatize the child, making him feel he always dissapoints no matter what. Too bad that nobody tells parents how to be a good parent.A lot of them would need therapy to fix themselves before trying to control their kid's life.
