i know, how do our parents feel when we reach new heights and excel at things, at which they have failed. They feel so very proud at our achievements and their failures stand no where !!

This is true, many parents live through the dreams of their children, as often is the case, so many dreams of the parents went down the wayside because either opportunities didn't present themselves or they made sacrifices in order for their kids to do better. I hope one day my parents will be proud of me because so far I feel like one big joke lol. I am working on it. I am determined to make my first million within two years. I just am, just to prove to myself that anything is possible.

some parents do let their frustration in failure be redeemed by their children.that's why in some cases the parents are the ones who decide on what course should their children take in college.parents feel proud when their children achieve a lot.they are happy knowing that their children have a stable life.

Hi Coco very well said and I really appreciate your thougts there. Good parents do not really impose their ideas on the kids. They, on the other hand, try to bring out the best in them in things they are good at.
