Hi, I’m kid! Please, if your child really doesn’t want to do the things that you want them too, don’t make them (as long as it’s something unimportant like a sport, hobby, job or perfect grades). I for one am forced to golf by my father. I do not enjoy the sport and all I’d does is stress me out when I don’t shoot what he wasn’t me to. My parent’s expectations for my grades were also too high, punishing me for getting B’s when I’m “capable of A’s”. They themselves were C students. I started ignoring them (academics-wise) once I started taking collage classes my freshman year and I could tell them that I had more college credits than the both of them combined. I have found that school is a lot less stressful now, not feeling like I have to have perfect grades and clear my entire schedule for time to study instead of hanging out with friends. Giving your kids a mold that you want them to fit will only make them feel like they aren’t good enough for you by simply being themselves and that their grades or placing in their sort defines the amount of love that you have for them. This can ruin parental relationships and the mental stability of the child.

God is Good. They're going to have to think along the lines of; doctor, engineer, lawyer, entrepreneur... JK. Whatever God wills is all I route for
100% I'd prefer them to follow their own path, if they thought about what to do in the future and they can make a valid career out of it in my opinion they can leave school it its needed.
Although if they aren't on a path to their future, like just playing games and stuff I would want them to follow the direction of me and my wife then (I'm currently not married and don't have kids but I have thought about it).
I they have an idea that I thought of for their future and they would like to pursue it I will support that decision fully even if it doesn't make them financially rich or come with status or other measurements that of society to appear like a better person.
This is just my view on it.

Of course, I wanted them to meet my expectations :D But they are wiser and live their lives as they wish not their overprotected mother :D
I’d like my future children to be happy and independent individuals.
Don’t have kids. But but but… my kids shall be raised according to the Holy Bible, the Word of God. I shall guide and protect them according to it.
Whatever works for them
Walk their own path, but i do point out options
