Carl Jung said, "Nothing has a stronger influence psychologically on their environment and especially on their children than the unlived life of the parent."
An essential job of a parent is to encourage their children to follow their dreams and their unique path and then support them along the path.
This also may be a parent’s most challenging job.
We often think that our path must (or must not) be our children’s path.
This is a huge mistake.
Allow your children to find their way in life.
