Do parents push kids to hard?

It has come to my attention that parents and adults are pushing children from ages newborn to almost 20 what to do and where to go. Yes, I know it is a parents job to mold a child into an adult, but why force them to go to colleges and school for something they don't use or enjoy? I have realized that kids will go and learn what they need to learn when it is necessary. The schools force them to learn it and test them on it a week or so after. The information doesn't stick usually so what did they really learn? To put up with the bull that they are forced to so they can be accepted.

I was forced to learn to swim, to play the piano and to do two Duke of Edinburgh Awards. I was a lazy child who wouldn't have done those things on my own. So I was pushed into doing certain things, but it means I had more on my CV and when I applied to university.

However, at the age of sixteen I was also pushed into a school that really wasn't right for me and I underwent a lot of stress trying to switch partway through the school year.

I don't think most parents push too hard, unless they're tiger parents.

To make it clear , a tremendous number of parents push their children to do things for their own good , they mean no harm . My parents push me so hard to study , in my perspective i found it overreacting but in their perspective if i fail , fingers of accusation will be pointed at them for not making me study hard .to sum it all up , it is the parents' role to make you a good person even if it means pushing you too hard .
