Yeah, parents come with all their own baggage and crap, that's for sure.
Parents often do put expectations on their kids. Parents often want to live vicariously through their kids. Parents often force or become very very invested in living a life that their parents wanted for themselves...
Only...
It's not certain...
Everybody wants their kid to become a doctor...
I'm not sure that those parents would actually choose to do the work themselves, rather than trying to con their kids into doing the work lol.
And ditto for engineering...
And sports...
And all the things.
And then other parents are determined not to do that to their kids so they sort of go too hands off and the kids grow up sort of aimless...
Hmm.
Fit is important.
