are we putting pressure on our children?

most parents are so into a perfect image of a good well rounded child... and doesnt even know we are giving them hard time and stress of early age... pressure comes when they think of how to make their parents be pleased or be happy in return.. but actually, it is better if the kids decide and make the best out of their own choices, if he is good in arts and music or sports, why force him to be in science and math quiz bee or english spelling contest.. if he hates to have some extra curricular of other programs and is not interested why force him so? when they are forced or are just attending only to follow such authority, learning is hard for them... because everything in it is not taken or digest within them by heart and soul... but if its their talent and interest, be sure he wont need tutorial because he does more and does perfectly of the inner drive the child posseses that gives the product of beautiful and naturally shown of to you to the family and to the whole world... take care ^_^
