How would you feel if you had parents who always paved the way for every achievement you achieved? After reading the article "My Family's Experiment in Extreme Education" it got me thinking about how far some parents would go to make sure their children succeed in achieving whatever goals they set for themselves... At first glance it would seem a little overbearing, but it's true, only you can dictate your future. In the article "My Family's Experiment in Extreme Education" the author explains how he packed up all his things and moved with his family to a foreign country just because he wanted to immerse his children in this environment with the hope that sooner or later they would capture on the language of this culture. Would you go to this length to ensure your child has the upper hand in life, and will these actions help him or her through thick and thin? At a young age, parents already have certain expectations for their children who they hope will turn out as they imagine. Growing up, my parents were always lenient with my grades. The only thing they would have a problem with was if I brought home an “F”. I can't say it was a bad way to parent, but the fact that they didn't push me enough to want to get an "A" wasn't good. I've always wondered what life would be like if I had parents who constantly bothered me about grades and my school work in general. The method with which my parents raised me helped me find that inner motivation that always made me overcome every obstacle I faced. I believe that when you get to the point of removing all barriers from your child's path, it allows them to grow mentally and develop... middle of paper... a full day. I was confused because I received the same grade, but unlike them, I was thrilled with my “B.” I considered the fact that my parents only cared if I brought home a failing grade, which is probably why our reactions were completely different. So children might consider some factors like how often your parents motivate you in life and how extreme their parenting methods are in general which will show how children decide to react to certain situations. leading role in your life, your extreme parents should know that they will only be suitable for supporting roles, ultimately it depends on you and which step you decide to take. As you focus on real issues, you will have to decide how to react to these problems. Your direction is not entirely clear yet, your production will be up and running in no time.
