By imposing your unfulfilled wishes on your child you inadvertently clip their wings and prevent them from soaring high in the limitless sky. Let them explore their likes and dislikes, but keep an eye so that they do not overlook what they are good at. For instance, if your kid has a flair for writing or craft, enrol him/her in a hobby class or likewise. You will see your kid excelling, if you encourage the spark in them to do the best in what they are good at.
