Most Chinese parents have great expectations of their children. When children are born, their parents have planned everything for them. It is common for parents to want their children to be successful. However, many children in China are unhappy. They live a planned life and are forced to fulfill the dreams that their parents failed to achieve when they were young.
In my opinion, there are two sides to parents' expectations. The expectations can encourage children to work harder for a better life. According to some studies, whether a child will be successful or not depends largely on his or her parents' expectations. However, unrealistic(不切实际的)expectations can be harmful to children. Every child has his or her own thoughts ad hobbies. Parents' expectations can take children's freedom away. Wise parents allow their children to have some freedom. They encourage their children to do things they like to do and never judge them by their grades.
My parents' expectations of me are to be happy, kind and healthy. They never put too much pressure on me, and I live a happy life. However, I have my own dreams and ambitions. I keep working hard, though my parents do not force me to do so. I will never give up because my parents always encourage me when I am in trouble
In a word, I think parents' expectations are necessary. However, parents should not give their children too much pressure. Instead, give them enough freedom. Parents must ensure their expectations of their children are realistic so that their children will not lose their self-confidence.
