Ambition on your child's behalf,
manipulating them into choosing the path you want for them without a thought for their own desires or wishes, sure they think they want their kids to be happy but they're convinced they know better as to how they can become so.

Very few parents do that.
It's usually rich families that do that. "You will be a Doctor!" etc. Stereotype maybe, but true.
Nothing to do with anything of course.
