Yesterday, I found myself giving advice to my cousin who's a freshman in college. Apparently, she's wants to get into graphic or interior design so I told her about what what i knew about those industries. I also told her what she study and add on to increase her skills.
For that one moment, I got why parents push their kids to do all kinds of sh*t. Part of it might be they wanted that for themselves (and now can't) and want to make sure you do it. Part of it might also be they want you prepared for battle when the time comes to fight for yourself. That or some parenting thing about bragging about their kids, which I hate.
I think what's important is the choice. Giving the choice and making the choice for themselves.
