Nice post, I really liked the way you let your kids do whatever they like to do with their own free will
I don't push my kids to play sports, what they play and do is completely up to them, as they put the effort out.
Many parents have spoit the future of their children with the mentality of keeping the families lagacy
For instance, it's actually an assumption; My grand-father is a musician so therefore as far as I belong to the family I must be a musician also. The child will just be living another person's life.
Favouritism kills alot, it should totally be discouraged in the society and the world at large. Being a coach is not easy but a team can't stand without a coach; as a coach he/she is to motivate the children and not let them lose hope.
Oh wow, it is so hard to stand up to family pressure, especially when it comes to tradition, which is really just peer pressure from the dead and the living alike. Ugh. Being coerced emotionally into doing something for someone else is the absolute worst thing ever and I hope that you are pursuing a life on your terms:)
