Today parents is so much different than the time we had twenty to thirty years back.
Previously parents will keep asking their children to learn what you are best at.
Modern parents now will force their child to learn whatever comes into their mind. Like learn piano, learn ballet, learn dancing, learn drawing.....etc all is manage by the parents.
现今父母跟我们二三十年前所面对的大不相同了。以前我们家长是支持我们鼓励我们，要我们做我们拿手的。现今家长是什么都已经安排好了，如学钢琴，学跳舞芭蕾舞，画画。。。。等等

Action speak better than words.

In order to have the children do a parents bidding like do whatever they want like getting a better score, finishes the food they don't like. Parents alwAys will just say if you so and so and so, I will buy you a ......
4） A second chance thru them
Getting too high hope from them and then suddenly it is not all about them but a second chance about us. This will confuse the child and may destroy their
happiness as childhood.
I like this post from
We may not want our child to fail but it is essential for them to experience it. Intervene too much of their activities is it a correct and we may need to ask ourself is it what tbey want or are we over protecting them. As a saying 'short term pain is better than long term pain' it is how we see it not how we want it.
