About This Quote

When you try to make your children’s dreams smaller, you are trying to control them. Some parents have the idea that the only thing needed to be happy is to have what they want. They do not realize that children have a great desire to explore life and discover the things that are beyond their imagination. When you try to extinguish this desire, you are harming them. You are trying to stop something so important it can never be extinguished.
