It is important for parents to arouse enthusiasm and curiosity in the child to pursue activities including studies and plans B’s, but not force them on the child. But the end result of what and how much a child achieves largely depends on parents, whether they are ignorant, supportive or pushy makes all the difference in child’s life.
Parents who neglect their children, as they are over involved with their own careers, ambitions & social activities don’t really know how to provide correct type of stimulating environment for their child. The children coming from these families never feel close to their parents and would never turn
Some parents are always keen that their child should excel in many fields want them to be front-runners in the rat race of education, careers and achievements. They feel they own the child and treat them as puppets. They do not believe in suggesting or guiding the child but impose their will and decide their future. Youngsters of today as it is set high goals for themselves & on the top of it such pushy parents put enormous pressure on already over burdened child.

Such pressurized children many a times feel insecure and loose their motivation because of too much involvement of over ambitious parents. Our children are given too little space to develop their own lives. S
