I never understood or supported this mindset.
Why would my life be all about making other people feel proud? If my parents had me only to be a trophy of how sucessful they are, they had me for the wrong reasons. I live for me. And the only person I care to make proud of me, is me.

Do you agree?

I just want my daughter to be a happy good person. I don't live vicariously through her whatsoever.
