Do you ever wish that your child be a perfect child just like you? I mean in the behavioral aspect? Some (or maybe most) parents are like that, which is not a bad thing. They encourage the kids to be like the things they used to like when they were kids. They teach kids ways or hobbies that they used to when they were still young. And if the child can show a behavior that is not like them, they scold the child. Parents like this forgot that the child is a combination of two genes – the mom and the dad. The mom did not realized that her kid is just half of her. So the kid can never be a replica of what she is. Maybe in looks, they can be so much alike but in ways, they can never be. Even twins, they can never be alike in all things but of course they love each other so much.

I love parents who love their kids in spite of their differences especially when kids make goals in life. I admire parents who encourage their kids to pursue whatever their kids wish to be when they grow up. I can just imagine what some adults feel when they are living a life that is a choice of their parents which they can't take. Of course, I wish everyone the best!
