Pushing Parents
To raise a successful child today, most parents are pushing their child to do what they think is the best for their child, while others are disagree about that.
On the one hand, what seems like "pushiness" to some may in fact be completely normal parenting behaviour to others and parents need to make choices. On the other hand, parents with unfulfilled a sports/academic dream and ambitions may seek to achieve goals and desires for the child above the actual needs of the child. Also, a child is too young to be pushed onto a particular career path and may end up hating their job if it's not what they really want to do.
On the one hand, what seems like "pushiness" to some may in fact be completely normal parenting behaviour to others. Parent give up everything for their children: money, time,..etc, so it's really important for them to that their children are successful. In some cultures, specially asian culture, if parents are not pushing their child, they may seem like a bad parent that are not caring for their child.
In addition, parents need to make choices and need to help their children to make a good choices. Parents want to help their child to make a right decision, they want their children to be stable and that will help their life settle down.
On the other hand, parents with unfulfilled sports / academic dreams and ambitions may seek to achieve their goals and desires for the child above the actual needs for the child. For the child, their definition of success is living up to their parent's expectation. Their parent expects them to do what most of the adult can not do while they are at such a young age.
Also, a child is too young to be pushed onto a particular career path and may end up hating their job if it is not what they really want to do. The child can be physically successful but might not be emotionally. A person is not emotionally "successful" if they hate their job. In the end, it's the child's life, not the parent's life.
