why is it that parents constantly expect you to do more more more? it's crazy. quick putting all that pressure on your kids, especially if they're doing their damn best! seriously, as long as your kid does his or her best, just accept it and don't tell them "you can do better" or "i expected more from you" or my favorite, "why don't you do as well as your sibling?". just let your kid be who they wanna be, don't try to make them into something YOU want just 'cause you weren't able to be that something. don't live your life through your kids, it's annoying and not fair to your kids.
