Indeed they do. But you said it in your statement yourself, "To be the kid they never were". And there is such a massive difference between giving your children the best opportunities and expecting them to fulfill the dreams you wish you had, but never did. Of course, the latter can become quite an unhealthy situation, as I'm sure you can appreciate.

Absolutely , trying to get your kid to become the kid you never were is not necessarily the best for your kid. It's just moulding them into what you want them to be and not what they want to be. Sadly, it still happens quite a bit amongst my friends
