I hear a lot of my friernds say that they have pushy parentes that expect way, way too much of them. But really, who's the one that wants the success the much? Do your parents really want more for you than you do? I would think that even if they didn't push you, you'd still want the best for yourself.
Who really, in the family, sets the standard for you? If you didn't have "pushy" parents, would you still work as hard as you do? And if you don't have "pushy" parents, have you pushed yourself to do your best? |

1. Maybe the parents like the glory of being the parents of a smart, successful person.
2. Yes, but in a good way. 3. My mother sets most of the standards. 4. Of course not! I can't motivate myself to work hard. Right now my parents aren't being as pushy as they were and that caused me to fall behind on a lot of homework. 5. I've tried, I've tried. The results aren't the same. |
