Don't force your ambitions on to them - my sister did this, as she always wanted to work in the beauty industry, and never got the opportunity. My niece followed this path to college to please her Mum - but, eventually was found in tears because she wanted to do something different.
I guess that I am lucky to have older sisters in as much that I did a lot of 'back seat' learning watching them parenting.
Incidently, they did a lot of things right, too, and are great parents .. but, we all get it wrong sometimes xx
Anyhow, my niece is now trainng to be a social worker, and loves it xx
